lyrics

Men on the ground exhale into the sky
We race across the surface of a wandering eye
We build ourselves up just to knock each other down
Well the ends justify the means they say
So we sail into a sea of hysterical disease
But it really doesn't matter anyway

You've got your hand to God and your ear to the ground
You listen for the voices but you don't hear a sound
We're a captivated audience watching a display
of a marvelous most elegant decay
We'll sing into the abyss songs that won't be missed
Some were never even hear in the first place

La da da da da la da da da
You listen for the voices but you don't hear a sound
We're a captivated audience watching a display
of a marvelous most elegant decay
We'll sing into the abyss songs that won't be missed
Some were never even hear in the first place

There are men touching clouds and men in the dirt
Now you tell me what it all is worth
The higher you climb the further you have to fall
We manipulate the soil shape the land with our back
Working till the sky above us is black
The high you climb the further you have to fall

So Men on the ground exhale into the sky
We race across the surface of a wandering eye
We build ourselves up just to knock each other down
Well the ends justify the means they say
So we sail into a sea of hysterical disease
But it really doesn't matter anyway
