We The Living - Typical lyrics

Typical- Crack the spine and relate us to yellowed words on brand new pages All we are All the volumes Can't contain us So place your blame and punctuate it With sharp-tongued words from sharp-tongued sages All we are All the wisdom Can't contain us We're typical We're typical But you can't read about us anymore We're typical We're typical And all the words we knew that came before On the fire are crackling pages of ancient words and ancient places Take my hand Through the forest of the knowledge we've created We'll read the lines that mark our ages Wrinkled eyes and wrinkled faces (Read them down to our mouths, forming words and forming phrases) We're typical We're typical But you can't read about us anymore We're typical We're typical And all the words we knew that came before Our love will not stand on the shoulders of greatness All you are And all I am Never before and never again We're typical We're typical But you can't read about us anymore We're typical We're typical But you can't be without him anymore We're typical We're typical And all the words we knew that came before Have been outdated
