I see a future give way
To a mother in pain
I see a future in flames
To each other I say
Can I ask you one thing?
Why can't we ever just leave?
Why do we just sit down, cover our eyes so we won't have to think.
Can you tell me one thing?
Why can't we learn to just be?
Why do we swallow this down, cover these lies so we won't need to feel.
Tied down to the bricks keeping me from swimming away
Right now bring me deliverance sanctify the unclean
Lying down underneath all the sins purify in their name
Right now bring me deliverance from the Human Machine.
I let the past now give way
To our father's own name
I leave the past in my wake
To each other I say
