"Apart From You" lyrics

"Apart From You"

There's a system and there's you
Running around, you split the person down
There's a system and there's two
Of you running around, you try to file it down

Everybody and then you
Running around, you try to file it down
In the hate speak and the queue
Running around, you try to file it down

There's no wisdom and no food
Running around, run 'round the island now
At self-service and coffee too
Running around, run 'round the island now
When the guards wait, look at you
Card or cash and press receipt if you want to
When the guards wait 'n' look at you
Card or cash and press receipt if you want to

Buy some time in the hole
In the waiting room of soul
In the depths invisible to everyone apart from you
Buy some time in the hole
And the waiting rooms are cold
In the depths invisible to everyone apart from you

Don't you listen, I told you
Falling around inside a closed-down pipe
As the rain slides over you
Bricks are salted moss and slaughtered
In the drains go our every move
Swimming around inside a closed drainpipe
As the ground hangs, presses you
Bricks are salted moss and slaughtered

Buy some time in the hole
In the waiting room of soul
In the depths invisible to everyone apart from you
Buy some time in the hole
And the waiting rooms are cold
In the depths invisible to everyone apart from you

There's a system
Running around
There's a system
(Of you) running around
Everybody
Running around
In the hate speak
Running around

There's a system
Running around
There's a system
(Of you) running around
Everybody
Running around
In the hate speak
Running around
