Lyrics Bad Logic - Idlewild

Bad Logic

By the people begging to believe
But it gives them strength that they think they need
To live and love, to celebrate and grieve
Delighted to arrive but so embarrassed to leave
No, the past is not dead
It’s just living within us
It’s living with us
No, the past is not dead
It’s just trying to reach us
Trying to reach us
I make up new names for places as they appear on the screen
In the bad logic of a dream
Man wants more and more bits of paper to anticipate
Feeling like a failure
No, the past is not dead
It’s just living within us
It’s living with us
No, the past is not dead
It’s just sleeping with us
It’s just trying to reach us
Reincarnation from the 12th to the 21st century
I’m so excited to be on TV constantly
Oh no, the past is not dead
It’s just living within us
It’s living with us
No no, the past is not dead
It’s just trying to reach us
It’s trying to reach us
