The facts and the figures   They overwhelm and stifle   Everything that you thought you knew      The facts and the figures   They overwhelm and stifle   From the very first breath you drew      The facts and the figures   They overwhelm and stifle   And the petty decisions   That you think make a difference      So tiny that they blow away like dust   So tiny that they blow away like dust   So tiny that they blow away like dust      Through all the devilish things we do   Through all the devilish things we do   Through all the devilish things we do   Through all the devilish things we do      Through all the devilish things we do   (I can't help my stupid hopes)   Through all the devilish things we do   (I can't help my stupid hopes)   Through all the devilish things we do   (I can't help my stupid hopes)      Through all the devilish things we do   (I can't help my stupid hopes)   Through all the devilish things we do   (I can't help my stupid hopes)      Facts and the figures   The overwhelming stifling   Everything that you thought you knew      So tiny that they blow away like dust   We are all embers from the same fire   We are all embers from the same fire   We are all embers from the same fire   We are all embers from the same fire
