Goodbye to the make-believe Goodbye to the foundry Long have you pumped oxygen Into everything around me If you saw the factory You would know exactly Time machines, fringe tame freeze Which one can we reprieve? We don't see it anymore Not in this life, maybe yours We'll not come home We'll not touch ground Take me to my favorite spot And promise me they're still around What's blown up, must come down It seems a waste to grow so great Just to be put in the ground No, the earth will reject this now Goodbye battle, paper thin Money's thicker, market wins Buy the boss a frosty drink ?'s playing, hearts sink Confectionary memories Are all I have to guide me Golden leaves, union dreams
What are these all worth without them? We don't argue anymore Not in this life, maybe yours Our childhood toys From the aisles made noise Took them while the captor slept Now with us they're kept Oh, let 'em die The world goes by Their home's among the dawn poised and laid to fall Without a thought at all The earth will accept them large and small Don't let it die, the world goes by I love the cold for freezing time What's the hurry? Do you mind? What goes up, must come down It seems a waste to grow so great Just to be pushed to the ground The earth's gonna turn us down There's another way out It's all around C'mon, c'mon, forward Oh, c'mon, c'mon, everyone
