Looking for a little escape
You had to flush this life down the drain
Now floating off in outer space
I guess it isn't really the same
Pushing through when nothing makes sense
Never living in the present tense
Eventually to hedge all your bets
Examples of the things we forget
Always imploding, the light that escapes
We hold onto nothing so nothing will change
Infinite closure, our lives rearranged
Birds on a wire, so inspired and profane
We're living out, we're living out our last mistakes
We prayed for some different results
I can't say that this wasn't your fault
Brought back here to hold what you claim
With consequences gone unexplained
I've wondered where everything ends
It's all over before it begins
So how can we bury the past?
When the future we keep doesn't last
Always imploding, the light that escapes
We hold onto nothing so nothing will change
Infinite closure, our lives rearranged
Birds on a wire, so inspired and profane
We're living out, we're living out our last mistakes
You can leave but you'll never escape
You can leave but you'll never escape
You can leave but you'll never escape
From living out, living out your last mistakes
