Silversun Pickups - Future Foe Scenarios lyrics

The things we laid do not amount to much

Made of abandoned wood, loose stones and such

This revolution baby

Proves who you work for lately


Release the castaways who run amok

From self appointed winds which blow and such

When present tense gets strangled in the mire

Made of our cozy decomposing wires


Who do you work for baby

And does it work for you lately


But when the night is over and the walls start burning

When fire starts to matter and the clock's still churning

Cliches and other chatter keeps our minds from

Learning


It's alright

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/s/silversun+pickups/future+foe+scenarios_20400483.html ]

The things we laid do not amount to much

Made up of thought balloons and cotton swabs

When present tense gets strangled in the woes

Made of our future foe scenarios


This revolution baby

Proves who you work for lately

Who do you work for baby

And does it work for you lately


But when the night is over and the walls keep linking

When fire starts to matter and the clock's still sinking

Cliches and other chatter keeps our minds from

Thinking

Our minds keep shrinking


It's alright


That's when it turned on me

A motorcade of 'meant to be's'

Parades of beauty queens

Where soft entwines make kindling

These many detailed things

Like broken nails and plastic rings

Will win by keeping me

From speaking to my new darling

And there's no way to know

Our future foe scenarios

That's when it turned on me

Where bobby pins hold angel wings


It's alright
