Children of the Echo |
You say I don’t communicate |
No comment |
I’d say it’s more of a long delay |
We are all children of the echo |
And time out of joint |
Now you wanna know just what makes me tick tick |
Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick tick… |
I don’t tick I’m digital |
Everything is black or white to me |
I’m either on or off or on or off or on or off or on or off |
I’m aiming high, I’m stooping low |
We are the children of the echo |
I was born in the middle of the second verse |
(I was born in the middle of the second verse) |
All my life I’ve tried to sing along |
(All my life I’ve tried to sing along) |
I’m not quite sure of all the words |
(I'm not quite sure of all the words) |
I haven’t got a clue just who wrote this song |
(Haven't got a clue who wrote this song) |
And it’s hard to hear your own voice in the midst of all these others |
And everything’s the wrong way round when you’re looking in a mirror |
And I’d really love to dance but I can’t find the one |
I can’t find the one |
I can’t find the one |
I can’t find the one |
I can’t find the… |
Are you the one? |
Are you the one? |
The one, the two, one, two, three, oh! |
I’m aiming high, I’m stooping low |
We are the children of the echo |
Hello |
Hello? |
Hello! |
Hello! |
Sooner or later everything will remind you of something else |
So repeat after me |
Repeat after me |
I am breathing |
(I am breathing) |
I am dancing |
(I am dancing) |
I am the product of all my ancestors both living and dead |
(I am the product of all my ancestors both living and dead) |
I have created an all-seeing, all-knowing, almighty entity |
Who does not care about me one bit |
One bit |
No, not one bit |
No, not one bit |
No, not one bit |
No, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
Oh, not one bit |
One bit one bit one bit one bit one bit yeah yeah yeah yeah |
I’m aiming high, I’m stooping low |
We are the children of the echo |
One for the money, zero for the show |
So sing the children of the echo |
I always thought there was so much more to learn |
But the echo fades with diminishing returns |
Yeah, the echo fades with diminishing returns |
Yes, the echo fades with diminishing returns |
Yes, the echo fades with diminishing returns |
