Our Velocity

I’m not a man, I’m a machine

Chisel me down until I am clean

I buy books, I never read

And then I’ll tell you some more about me

Beneath the concrete there’s a sound

A muffled cry below the ground

There is a poison in the air

A mix of chemicals and fear

Manners are just hunches

I’m not sure what they mean

You’re asking for commitment

When I’m somewhere in between

Never, never try to gauge temperature

When you tend to travel

At such speed

It's Our Velocity

Is it cold where you are this time of the year

You didn’t leave a scar

A stream of numbers hit a screen

And you’re expected to know what they mean

Throughout the conflict I was serene

I can't outrun the sadness I’ve seen

Are you willing to resist

The people you’ve never met

The devil's wheel revolves

But it needs to be reset

Never, never try to gauge temperature

When you tend to travel

At such speed

It's Our Velocity

Please tell me is it cold

where you are this time of the year

You didn’t leave a scar

I’ve got no one to call

In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone

With these thoughts

I’ve got no one to call

In the middle of the night anymore

I'm just alone

With my thoughts

I watched a film to change my feelings

Strong enough to bear a burden

If everyone became this sensitive

I wouldn't have to be so sensitive

If everyone became so sensitive

Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive

Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to

Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too

Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to

Love is a lie

I’ve got no one to call

In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone

With these thoughts

I’ve got no one to call

In the middle of the night anymore

I’m just alone

With my thoughts

Never, never try to guage temperature

When you tend to travel

At such speed

It's Our Velocity
