Escalator

Walked around the plaza with my shoes off

I ran into a boy that I grew up with

Said, "Hey, don't I know you from somewhere?"

My feet got caught in the escalator

Skin got ripped off my body

My bones got shredded to nothing

And even though you're talking, you're still nameless

And even though you live here, you still praise it

You gotta keep going, keep racing

The car was caught out on the train tracks once more, believe it

You know I didn't listen the last time, but will you repeat it?

I'm not without my reasons

♪

♪

Ambulance at peak hour, keep dreaming

Rejection of a movement, it's in season

Your child will deem you worthless, you space taker

Our love is never frozen, it's just lazy

Our house is never homely, it just sits there

But everybody's good to someone

He's at the bottom of the lake again

Just get him out and see if he's got his reason

Or if he still believes it

You'll never know beyond, your self-interest

You'll never know above, so quit believing

That it's a good time, if you let it

You'll never know beyond, your self-interest

You'll never know above, so quit believing

That it's a good time, if you let it

'Cause, you'll never know beyond, your self-interest

You'll never know above, so quit believing

That it's a good time, if you let it
