The Astronaut Tapes - On the Ringer

We are not the culprits
We are not the culprits
We are not the culprits
We are not the culprits

A generation built on fear and pride
The subjugation of a timid mind
Watch it flow from your hands like time
But nobody stops it
A lollipop in your hand no more
The call of banks come from a distant shore
A cup of hubris dripping to the floor
Don't worry it can't fit

Somebody has to answer for the things that they have done
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Don't look at where the tail is pinned but where it came from
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Without a line connected people can you hear the hum
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
This phone is buzzing with the tired calls of
Every home lost and they won't stop until they're done

A pair of peaks full of empty glass
The revolution started just as fast
With kids and teachers quarantined in class
The news could not transmit
If diving deep down into every room
The filing of papers couldn't come too soon
And everybody had to smell the fumes
The practice was moonlit

Somebody has to answer for the things that they have done
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Don't look at where the tail is pinned but where it came from
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Without a line connected people can you hear the hum
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
This phone is buzzing with the tired calls of
Every home lost and they won't stop until they're done

Somebody has to answer for the things that they have done
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Don't look at where the tail is pinned but where it came from
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
Without a line connected people can you hear the hum
They're on the ringer now
They're on the ringer now
This phone is buzzing with the tired calls of
Every home lost and they won't stop until they're done
