They called me up to see if I had heard

About the accident

The accident of a girl sick with the world

This isn't news it's all old stuff

Underneath and above us

One arrives and one takes off

But let's not fall apart

Oh silence my heart

All the things I did with you

And all the things I'll never do

I saw the sun come up and fall down

The days were fast

But time was much too slow

Some pretty concrete sky

Was blackening my eyes

I stood here and I tried to scream

But what came out

Well not much of the things I meant to do with my life

Efficiency above all

You get yourself free by following a plot

You wake and eat and sleep and wake

Until it's much too late

Now finally I see

How easy it could be

To get the world off of me

And get the spies out from their windows

And lift myself above the rooftops

To leave and to never return

I waited my whole life for this answer

All the things I did with you

And all the things I'll never do

I saw the sun come up and fall down

The days were fast

But time was much too slow

Efficiency above all

You get yourself free by following a plot

You wake and eat and sleep and wake

Until it's much too late

And it's much too late
