The World's Gone Quiet
Top of the hour
Highlights reel and the ears pin back to the sound of the suffering
It's more delight than a sudden fright
For the window
While its gap is slim, the shades scrolled down and the light's been dimmed
It's been opened a split-second apart
From when you're put back in the dark
Now the world's gone quiet...
Top up your caffeine
Short-term revelations keep you tied to the sound of computing
It's more your brain loading frame by frame
At the station
As the last train's called, the platform's empty and the engine mothballed
It was running but now it's taken apart
And you're left out in the dark
Now the world's gone quiet...
As you knew before and you'll know it again
We are all together to the bitter end
Yet divided we stand to belittle it all
At the ring of the battle call
Top of the charts
Selling wares in the name of art and the good of others
Though not the ones that require the sum
In the mirror
That reflects your age in the standard motion you do disengage
'cos whatever happens the trouble is fine
As long as it isn't mine
Now the world's gone quiet...
Highlights reel and the ears pin back to the sound of the suffering
It's more delight than a sudden fright
For the window
While its gap is slim, the shades scrolled down and the light's been dimmed
It's been opened a split-second apart
From when you're put back in the dark
Now the world's gone quiet...
Top up your caffeine
Short-term revelations keep you tied to the sound of computing
It's more your brain loading frame by frame
At the station
As the last train's called, the platform's empty and the engine mothballed
It was running but now it's taken apart
And you're left out in the dark
Now the world's gone quiet...
As you knew before and you'll know it again
We are all together to the bitter end
Yet divided we stand to belittle it all
At the ring of the battle call
Top of the charts
Selling wares in the name of art and the good of others
Though not the ones that require the sum
In the mirror
That reflects your age in the standard motion you do disengage
'cos whatever happens the trouble is fine
As long as it isn't mine
Now the world's gone quiet...
