lyrics

You can't go out on your own
You're not a lark from a past life
You're never truly alone
You've got a friend by your side
You're always bending your back
You should be sitting up straight
That's always one for the road
You're always one to be afraid

All the great prophets never disappear
Try to take shape and lose all progress
Copper-based fates and whispers in your ears
All the right traits and all wrong problems
When they are all in the right place
They take it too close to heart
With light shining in your face

You're always breaking your jaw
You should be keeping your mouth closed
Or just go breaking the law
You have been overexposed
To everything that you've seen
On a screen in your bedroom
So tell me, what have you learned?
There's always time to be afraid

All the great prophets never disappear
Try to take shape and lose all progress
Copper-based fates and whispers in your ears
All the right traits and all wrong problems
When they are all in the right place
They take it too close to heart
With light shining in your face
It was a mess from the... beginning

Soon there is light
And what we offer can't be redeemed
Nor can discover moments between
Watching your life go by from your seat
Holding each other

Due to our own actions or inactions
And the misuse of our technology
We live at an extraordinary moment for the earth
At least, for the first time, that a species has been able to wipe itself out

All the great prophets never disappear
Try to take shape and lose all progress
Copper-based fates and whispers in your ears
All the right traits and all wrong problems
