Our Velocity

I'm not a man, I'm a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books, I never read
And then Ill tell you some more about meBeneath the concrete there's a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fearManners are just hunches
I'm not sure what they mean
Your'e asking for commitment
When I'm somewhere in betweenNever, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocityIs it cold where you are
This time of the year?
You didn't leave a scarA stream of numbers hit a screen
And you're expected to know what they mean
Throughout the conflict I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I've seenAre you willing to resist
The people you've never met?
The devil's wheel revolves
But it needs to be resetNever, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocityPlease tell me is it cold
Where you are this time of the year?
You didn't leave a scarI've got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With these thoughtsI've got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With my thoughtsI watched a film to change my feelings
Strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive
I wouldn't have to be so sensitiveIf everyone became so sensitive
Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitiveLove is a lie
Which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
Which means I've been lying tooLove is a lie
Which means I've been lied to
Love is a lieI've got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With these thoughtsI've got no one to call
In the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With my thoughtsNever, never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel
At such speed
It's our velocity
