Our Velocity

Lyrics

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
 My words 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
 For 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
 I'm 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 gauge temperature
 When you tend to travel at such speed
 It's our velocity
