lyrics

Far too old for me, far too dull for me. I need younger, cooler, shorter, only off the screen. Tales I can't relate; the evidence escaped. The years have not been kind, my mind just finds the times too strange. Have you seen what we've done? Well this I base my judgements on. The pages left unread with so much to be said; The words that filtered through to you into all of our heads. Now it's all we see, they're doing as they please. They didn't ever arrange to be made the angels we now need. Have you seen what we've done? Well this I base my judgements on. The sea of possibility has drowned with centuries, I know what I'll believe. Look around, the pillars of this town have been knocked down, now who's gonna lead? They elevate, based on fame, until we all complain 'you've let the children down'. How much time until we find that all our wrongs are right, and no-one doubts?
