Running short on imagination   Still we waste it all on words   Spoken without the benefit of our minds      The candle burns the edges fray   Our best intentions waste away   And everybody loves the things you've done   And on and on and on      Life appears weightless   For everyone but me   This world grows heavier every day   Deterioration   Growing old before my time   Nobody cares never mind      We all prey on our vain condition   And the hopelessness of it all   These days there's nothing   We can trust      The dreams we made we've seen them face   Trampled by our sad parade   Yet we're so pleased with what we've done   And on and on and I'm done      The mind breaks down when it dies   Our machines doubled in size   To orchestrate the grand collapse   I see us all trapped in its path   There was a time we were unbound   As if we're never hit the ground   But just like rain we can't keep from falling
