lyrics

We must look sorry the way we stumble around
A company of mimes struggling with the science of sound
And thank God someone’s filming, every minute of every day
‘Cause I just can’t help but watch this fucked up broke ballet

Endless diversions keep our heads up in the clouds
Completely connected, strangers shouting out in crowd
With all this entertainment we’re ambushed yeah we’re amused
Oh we used to write. We used to talk. I ain’t never been so confused

I think we lost our way – nothing solid to steady the sway
The compass bends and splits at the ends
But I need you my friends

I think we lost our way – nothing solid to steady the sway
The compass bends and splits at the ends
But I need you my friends


Strike all the stages, the curtain’s lying on the ground
As we pirouette and curtsy, we’re so desperate to be found
