Ones And Zeros lyrics

There's a black hole pulling me in

I slowly bend till I see the back of my own sins

I stole my soul from myself now I wonder

Wonder - is there somebody with a perfect plan

That goes boom when it's stamped and we could understand

How the gods of old used to clap their hands to make thunder

So we're clapping and we're laughing like it was so absurd

In the future we'll be laughing at who we were right now

As man plays god with the land that he plunders

To the one unknown no one can know nor see

That's resistant to greed

If we listen to time after time, time can never go under

There's this vine trying to climb

Through the window into my life

I don't mind

I don't mind

I don't mind

There's this wine trying to find

Its way from the bottle into my mind

In my mind

In my mind

In my mind

And so this vine is trying to climb

Through the window into my life

To bring me symmetry

And memories of a backlit breeze

Back into a dream on the ground

Looking up at the sun coming down

Into a world of boys and girls

Are holding handheld devices

While they're eating and they're sleeping

And they're dreaming of the prices

We'll be paying down the line

When the ice melts maybe it will turn to wine

And all the greatest of the heroes started jumping from the books

They started wearing ones and zeros

Looking more and more like crooks

They stole the sunlight from the future

Took a sip, drained half the glass, and put it back

And a lot of people like to have a feast

Not so many could stomach the killing

Lot of traffic on the streets, so who's really doing all the drilling

Keep on filling what can never be full

My imagination has got a hold on me

There's this vine trying to climb

Through the window into my life

I don't mind

I don't mind

I don't mind

There's this wine trying to find

Its way from the bottle into my mind

In my mind

In my mind

In my mind.
