Planet Indigo - When the Floor Sweeps Away

This was not the way that you planned it
A circle of abuse
Fed up with the words of your hatred
The callous way that you choose
Affirmation, everything is not the way it seems
You deviate from all you say you're part of the machine

Lay low tonight
Stay out of sight

Counting down, don't make a sound
Watch it all go down
Let the pipers play as they lead you astray

Pitiless, cold, can you feel the oppression
Who will take the fall
Fixation on the verge of obsession
Towards the end of it all
Every nation for themselves, it's not the way it seems
You're stuck inside a sinking ship, you're drifting down the stream

Calm down can you feel it coming under your skin (lay low tonight)
It's a riot, not a thing is as it should have been
Lay low tonight

Counting down, don't make a sound
Watch it all go down
Let the pipers play as they lead you astray

Don't you frown, we were bound to go down
Watch it go down in flames
Lay still wide awake as the floor sweeps away

You and me referee, we're no superstars
Watch and learn as we dig for blood minerals
Rattling and rolling like we've always done
Nothing compared to how our elders run
Rushing our lives to see what our plead is
Death, rust and confidence is our trinity
Bitching and moaning about how it could have been
You never did it yourself, to begin with

Lay low tonight
Stay out of sight
Hey yo, can you feel the oppression
A grinding cog of the conveyor belt
Time is simply made up saturation
That'll take us all to hell

Counting down, don't make a sound
Watch it all go down
Let the pipers play as they lead you astray

Don't you frown, we were bound to go down (stop feed me guaranties)
Watch it go down in flames (of negativities)
Lay still wide awake as the floor sweeps away

Ah, ah ah (when the roof falls over me)
Let the pipers play as they lead you astray
Ah, ah ah (and the floor sweeps down my feet)
Lay still wide awake as the floor sweeps away

As the floor sweeps away
