lyrics

Weekday teacher / dancefloor creature,
You will not be saved.
As you hum along
To your loving song,
You will not be saved.

Righteous, mic'd market preacher,
You will not be saved.
As you point and froth,
Like you've done enough,
You will not be saved.

So fill my lungs
Like you're traffic fumes,
Pull me apart
Like a fission muse.
If I die young
Then at least I was with you.

Secret keeper / landslide seeker,
She will not be saved.
She can bend & swing
In the changing winds,
But she will not be saved.

Carbon quota,
Shoes in water,
We will not be saved.
As we forwards row
In our backwards boats,
We will not be saved.

So pull my strings, baby,
Read the news.
Put the words
In a centrifuge.
When the lies come off
At least we'll know the truth.

So fill my lungs
Like you're traffic fumes,
Pull me apart
Like a fission muse.
If I die young
Then at least I was with you.
