The Orphaning Lyrics

Storm and sea
Punish us piece by piece
But world economy must grow
If we drown, we drown in luxury

Why should we save lives we'll never meet?
Why should we not destroy?
...ourselves

We're dancing to the end on volcanoes
Screaming pantomimes in our ears
At night, we set our beds ablaze
Orphaning the future - orphaning ourselves

The change we cause
Will slowly destroy your tiny world
And you have nothing to stay
You're helpless
Consumed

Why should we save lives we'll never meet?
Why should we not destroy ourselves?

The Escape From Escapism

I have been thinking the wrong thoughts
Misread the signs
Walking on false paths
I misjudged life

I was chanting the wrong songs
Too deaf to hear
Playing nostalgic tunes
Anywhere, but here

You can't get the right answers
When you're asking the wrong questions
Following familiar tracks
Is seldom the best

Strength is not how high you can climb
But how you cope when you bounce
We are all in the gutter
But some of us are looking at the stars

Don't let the past
Reign you forever
