Backwards and forwards, we go 'round and 'round Our cyclical nature, unnaturally wound The sun will come up and the moon will go down Repeat and repeat until we're in the ground Forwards and backwards and 'round we go 'round This cynical attitude floods and we drown Need some variation and I need it now A change of scenery away from this town Upwards and downwards, the streets all compound Metropolis alleys that peak and resound Cries reverberate, words regurgitate from the media's mouth Let's not act so doom and gloom Let's address all the elephants in the room Let's not act so pitiful When they're painted in pink and look so beautiful Like ebony and ivory, we agree to disagree Like the ebb and flow of a strong storm coming home Please leave me be But with your cosmic breath, I feel you whisper so eloquently Like a parting gift from miss eternity as she walks away One, two, three, four Sweetheart, look north (Look north) We can watch the sun go down (Go down) Broaden our horizons, then burn 'em to the ground For what it's worth (What it's worth) We never play around (Play around) We meant what we said We'll burn it to the ground I don't know what is real How to think or how to feel Am I lost in my design? Artificial but I'm real Plastic skin but it won't peel Can I live a normal life? I don't know what's happening Ground is shaking under me My blood is boiling I don't feel a single thing Now I'm numb to everything I'm evolving Backwards and forwards, we go 'round and 'round Our cyclical nature, unnaturally wound The sun will come up and the moon will go down Repeat and repeat until we're in the ground Forwards and backwards and 'round we go 'round This cynical attitude floods and we drown Need some variation and I need it now A change of scenery away from this town You better not act up or play the fool 'Cause this city's just become one big swimming pool You'd better hold me close and never let go Come on in, the water's fine Let's just go with the flow Do you feel in control? Dive in real slow Sweetheart look north, we can watch the sun go down Broaden our horizons, then burn 'em to the ground Sweetheart, go north (Go north) We can watch the moon come out (Come out) Braving new horizons will assuage all the doubt For what it's worth (What it's worth) We have burnt the city down (Burnt it down) Now all that was lost can never be found I don't know what is real How to think or how to feel Am I lost in my design? Artificial but I'm real Plastic skin but it won't peel Can I live a normal life? I don't know what's happening Ground is shaking under me My blood is boiling I don't feel a single thing Now I'm numb to everything I'm evolving
