It's a Long Story

Rules

You say you know love but you are just reflecting words you hear / No iron in your veins could give you any sense of pain or fear / It’s just another lie, it’s just another calculation / And when the power’s out, we’re just another old sensation 

This blood keeps me alive but what is it that runs through you / Electricity and wires dictating everything you do / You tell me that you hear me and all your memories are real / But how do I know you don’t just feel what you’ve been told to feel?

We run around the rules, we run around the rules, we run around the rules / Round and round, two by two, we run around the rules

There’s water in your eyes and I know I’m the reason that it’s there / But still I don’t feel bad because I know that you have more to spare / And just behind your eyes are switches that can turn back on / To clear away today ‘til all your memories are gone
