Song language: English
All Systems Red |
| Felt a tremor stir beneath my breath |
| That forecasts storms on the gallup poll |
| Woke up from the nightmare news |
| And hoping to read a sign in the morning air |
| Nothing changes here and nothing improves |
| All say my friends who just want out |
| And leave these troubles behind |
| Scatter like paper in the eye of the storm |
| Documented with a silent snow |
| That’s only heard from far away |
| More cards in play, follow in suit |
| Everywhere you look, you only see red |
| And wonder when to call off the race |
| Watching a horse running down its last legs |
| Just when you think it couldn’t get much worse |
| Watch the numbers rise on the death toll |
| And the chimes of freedom flash and fade |
| Only heard from far, far away |
| I hear you can’t trust in your own |
| Now the gray is broken in the early morn |
| And the words forming barely have a voice |
| It’s just your heart that’s breaking without choice |
| Everything you’ve learned is distorted in your head |
| Bouncing off the walls, unraveling the thread |
| Staying up with the blue screen glow |
| Forgetting everything you ever dreamed years ago |
| When the dread is flowing down my veins |
| I want to tear it all down and build it up again |
| Tear it all down, build it up again |
| Hear your heart that’s breaking without choice |
| I want to hear those chimes ring again |
| Ring again |
