Ad astra per aspera

Where are we?
What the hell is going on?
The dust has only just begun to fall
Crop circles in the carpet
sinking...
feeling...
Spin me 'round again and rub my eyes
this can't be happening
When busy streets' a mess with
People would stop to hold their heads - heavy
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing-machines
All those years
They were here first
Oily marks appear on walls, where pleasure moments hung before
The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still life
Hide and seek
Trains and sewing-machines (oh you won't catch me around here)
Blood and tears - oh
They were here first
Mmm what you say
mm that you only meant well - well OF COURSE you did
Mmm what you say
Mm that it's all for the best - of course it is
Mmm what you say
Mm that it's just what we need - you decided this!
Mmm what you say
Mmoohh what did she say?
Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs
Speak no feeling, no I don't believe you
You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit
Hide and seek (Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth, mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs)
Hide and seek (Speak no feeling, no I don't believe you, you don't care a bit, you don't care a bit)
You don't care a bit
Oh oh you don't care a bit
Ah oh you don't care a bit
Mm mm you don't care a bit
You don't care a bit
You don't care a bit...
