Slomotion

[Verse 1] Take stock of the situation Assess the complications That arise from our half truths The stage in this case Is just a tool to make it possible For you to justify your blighted worldview [Chorus] I've got an answer If we don't need it, we don't take it now The solution is If we don't need it, we don't take it at all [Verse 2] The scam's transparency is we get older And we feel like we are missing something We wonder why our plans don't work When we won't take a stand We slink away like frightened rats Guess what? [Chorus] I've got an answer If we don't need it, we don't take it now The solution is If we don't need it, we don't take it at all [Outro] We want to build a perfect world somehow But the exciting prizes just out of our reach have slowed us down
