Feeling so low, so down tonight, we're living like two machines Knowing that we lost the fight to our darkest dreams Empty streets, unpainted walls, echoes say good-bye Could've found another way but they didn't even try I heard you screaming, "One more day" Deadline, deadline, setting us a deadline There's safety in numbers, but we're numbering the days
Holding out, k**ing time, nothing left to say Softer than cyanide, given time to fade Deadline deadline, said it was a deadline Gazing out the windows, looking out in the night air When the echoes said good-bye I couldn't even care Softer than cyanide, given time to fade Deadline, deadline, setting us a deadline [repeat] Deadline
