There was a time when I fully embraced it
But now I can hardly face it
Face the truth of where I stand on this line
Curvin' up, bringing down what I see as a natural time
I hope I can keep up
I hope I can keep up
It's not a race now to the end of the maze
But I see these machines eatin' up all of our days
And I'm pulled both ways
To leave it all, stay
So should I try to keep up?
Oh, will I try to keep up?
The old mystic in me wants to believe we don't need all this technology
Ooh
And I know it's not in my hands
I'm just one little grain in all these shifting sands
There's a lot you don't see in this life
But sometimes you pick up on something in your strife
I hope I can pick up
I hope I can pick it up
Mmm
There's no use fighting against an inevitability
But if you don't listen to suspicions at all then you'll always agree
And I know there's no sense in trying to be the world's police
But I want to see humans and cities as more than just a disease
Aah
There's a problem with the term "nature"
As if we're not a part of her
And this mindset to conquer
Comes to no good end of that I'm sure
I hope we can let go
I hope we can let it go
