"Dream Machines" lyrics
In oceans of static my mind starts to panic
Watch it rise past our heels
On glaciers so frantic, they'll sink in the Atlantic
Or so they feel
With eyes set so far out to sea
There's nothing but man-made astrology
To put our metal hearts at ease
And guide me...
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
Virus in the air
What have you taken from my mind
That I can't spare?
Change and rearrange the ghost that's in your brain
Just don't let it decode
This glacier is my father
This shining moon is my mother
I am just a child born of cold, dark nights and bone-chilling pneumonia
Every time I rush the ice the avalanche inside erupts
And every step I ask myself
Has the frost consumed me now?
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
As my tears run, I rust apart
As my joints cease, I become a still work of art
A canvas painted pastel peach and doused in kerosene
These flames have come to haunt our dreams
But we wake up before they meet
When all I see is snow
I know we're far away from home
Where is there a guiding light?
I need to see it in front of me
I need to see the spark ignite
I need to find some space to breathe
Before my body fails me
I want to head so far away
So dangerous but so unfair
Just close my eyes so I don't care
In oceans of static my mind starts to panic
Watch it rise past our heels
On glaciers so frantic, they'll sink in the Atlantic
Or so they feel
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
Watch it rise past our heels
On glaciers so frantic, they'll sink in the Atlantic
Or so they feel
With eyes set so far out to sea
There's nothing but man-made astrology
To put our metal hearts at ease
And guide me...
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
Virus in the air
What have you taken from my mind
That I can't spare?
Change and rearrange the ghost that's in your brain
Just don't let it decode
This glacier is my father
This shining moon is my mother
I am just a child born of cold, dark nights and bone-chilling pneumonia
Every time I rush the ice the avalanche inside erupts
And every step I ask myself
Has the frost consumed me now?
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
As my tears run, I rust apart
As my joints cease, I become a still work of art
A canvas painted pastel peach and doused in kerosene
These flames have come to haunt our dreams
But we wake up before they meet
When all I see is snow
I know we're far away from home
Where is there a guiding light?
I need to see it in front of me
I need to see the spark ignite
I need to find some space to breathe
Before my body fails me
I want to head so far away
So dangerous but so unfair
Just close my eyes so I don't care
In oceans of static my mind starts to panic
Watch it rise past our heels
On glaciers so frantic, they'll sink in the Atlantic
Or so they feel
Guide me back where we planned
To build our castles in the sand
Where you promised me these neon dreams won't fade
Until we lock our memories away
