Song Lyrics

Maybe we're invisible
Don't forget the rules are tired
Don't like the principles
While we're tangled in the mire
The claim that we're no good for you
Is only true if I'm a liar
Not gonna bend the truth
We'll continue to perspire
One of these days
We will not be found
One of these days
We'll be underground
Maybe we're invisible
A labelled reject makes no sound
Then we've just reached the point
Where I become overwhelmed
The evidence is to the contrary
We're pushing the thing far too long
Unwanted specimen
Don't criticise, it's just feels wrong
I don't why you won't meet my gaze
And I don't know why
Why I'm in this rage
Cos if I don't need
If I do not need
Then why rely on
You to rescue me
Guess I won't see you over there
But I'll surprise you soon I swear
Guess I won't see you over there
But I'll surprise you soon I swear
Maybe once in a while you're called on it
Maybe once in a while you'll take the
blame
I don't know why I'm pacing back
and forth
And gazing round
Willing myself to not despair
Don't know what we are facing
Should I be embracing it?
That one percent of me that cares
It's a race to be one of a kind
Even though we are feeding this
bottomless pit
All the rejections made
Are just some of the things that fuel
us on
We'll change the time and the place
But never become congenial
We're taking a chance with the grave
Cos some of the kicks just take a toll
Given the state of the place
I wonder if we'll survive at all?
One of these days
We will not be found
One of these days
We'll be underground
When we just can't feel your gaze
I feel I'm on my own
As we're left standing here
Wondering if we have a home
Do you force me to be
Pushing towards obscurity?
And you just close the door, drowning
out our constant pleas
I don't why you won't meet my gaze
And I don't know why
Why I'm in this rage
Cos if I don't need
If I do not need
Then why rely on
You to rescue me
Guess I won't see you over there
But I'll surprise you soon I swear
Guess I won't see you over there
But I'll surprise you soon I swear
Maybe once in a while you're called on it
And maybe once in a while you'll take
the blame
I don't know why I'm pacing back and
forth
And gazing round
Willing myself to not despair
Don't know what we are facing
Should I be embracing it?
That one percent of me that cares
It's a race to be one of a kind
Even though we are feeding this
bottomless pit
It's a race to be one of a kind
Even though we are feeding this
bottomless pit
