"Swallowed" lyrics
"Swallowed"
They're spraying the crops on the farm today
You can watch the haze on the breeze
They say that it helps keep the bugs away
Not sure what it says about me
And it can all be swallowed
They say it'll do you good
It can all be swallowed
But I don't really know if I should
They're spreading the word on the news today
You can watch the haze on the screen
Should we do what they do or do what they say?
'Cause a river runs in between
And it can all be swallowed
They say it'll do you good
It can all be swallowed
But I don't really know if I should
Well, you answered the call on the telephone
And you followed the map they sent
And they took every one of your dollar bills
Like the lies that came and went
And they told you to stop reaching for the top
So you tumbled and fell to earth
No escape from the hands of those invisible bands
No return to what you're worth
And they told you of rings and incredible things
And they told you that pigs could fly
But they don't want their meat growing feelings or feet
So it's time to say goodbye
And the end, my friend's, an impossible bend
That nobody knows how to steer
Well, you can get incensed, you can get revenge
But you gotta get out of here
They're closing the door of the farm today

Then was gone
Gone
Like the mountains of the moon

Evergrey - "In Orbit" I'm caught here in this vacuum
I'm falling from a sunless sky
I'll rid myself of value

This is our time, nothing more
