  • 作词 : Brock
    While we're on the subject
    Could we change the subject now?
    I was knocking on your ears
    Don't worry, you were always out
    Looking towards the future
    We were begging for the past
    Well we knew we had the good things
    But those never seemed to last
    Oh please just last

    Everyone's unhappy

    Everyone's ashamed
    Well we all just got caught looking

    At somebody else's page

    Well nothing ever went

    Quite exactly as we planned
    Our ideas held no water

    But we used them like a damn

    Oh, and we carried it all so well

    As if we got a new position
    Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell

    Saying yes, this is a fine promotion
    Oh, and I laugh all the way to hell

    Of course everyone goes crazy
    Over such and such and such
    We made ourselves a pillar
    We just used it as a crutch
    We were suddenly uncertain
    At least I'm pretty sure I am
    Well we didn't need the water
    But we just built that go god damn

    Oh, and I know this all myself

    I stood in front for all the people
    Oh, and I know this all myself

    We listen while life hangs on

    And the sound of life's sweet bliss

    Was it ever worth it?
    Was there all that much to gain?
    Well we knew we missed the boat
    And we'd already missed the plane

    We didn't read the invite
    We just dance at our wake
    All our favorites were playing
    So we could shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
    Tiny curtains open
    and we heard the tiny clap of little hands
    A tiny man would tell a little joke
    and get a tiny laugh from all the folks
    Sitting drifting around in bubbles
    and thinking it was us that carried them

    When we finally got it figured out
    that we had truly missed the boat

    Oh, and we carried it all so well

    As if we got a new position
    Oh, and we owned all the tools ourselves

    But not the skills to make a shelf with
    Oh, what useless tools ourselves
