Sailling through the tunnels   In the morning by yourself   There's a very special feeling   True sensation all is well   If you stand and reach your arms out wide   Close your eyes and try to fly   It's an underground illusion   Tricking you from side to side     We knew all the answers   And we shouted them like anthems   Anxious and suspicious   That God knew how much we cheated     It can't come quickly enough   And now you've spent your life   Waiting for this moment   And when you finally saw it come   It passed you by and left you so defeated     Skyscrapers rise between us   Keeping me from finding you   If the concrete architecture   Dissapeared there'd be so few   Of us left to navigate and   Defend ourselves from the tide   It's an underground illusion   Tricking you from side to side     There's no indication of   What we were meant to be   Sucking up to strangers   Throwing wishes to the sea     It can't come quickly enough   And now you've spent your life   Waiting for this moment   And when you finally saw it come   It passed you by and   Left you so defeated
