A distance

   You move in waves, 
   (there is a distance when you speak).
   I read the signs, 
   try to decipher the emotions
   And look at lines like reading numbers on a screen
   It builds inside, a tidal wave that’s coming closer
   ...every day...
   It’s just a lot to know.
   It’s just a lot to swallow.
   I’ve got a lot to say, I’ve got a lot to share
   I’ve got a lot to say to a disinterested caller
   Talking at a distance, listening at a distance...

We stand as if on the inside looking out
We read the signs, making millions of connections
I’m doing just fine – the things I need are getting cheaper every day
It’s just a lot to know.
It’s just a lot to swallow.
I’ve got a lot to say, I’ve got a lot to share
I’ve got a lot to say to a disinterested caller
Talking at a distance,
Listening at a distance

Synapses firing, we’re onto you
We’re untangling the wiring, we’re onto you
Won’t be fooled or deceived again, oh no!
