Our Velocity SONG LYRICS

Ringtone: Send Our Velocity Ringtone to your Cell Phone!

I'm not a man, I'm a machine,
Chisel me down until I am clean.
I buy books, I never read,
and then I tell you some more about me!

Beneat the concrete there's a sound,
a muffled cry below the ground.
There is a poison in the air, a mix of chemicals and fear.

(*Not a part of the song* Might be wrong about the following sentence.)
Mom and dad are just hunches,
I'm not sure what they mean.*
You're asking for commitment,
when I'm somewhere in between.

Never, never try to gauge temperature.
When you travel at such speed.
It's our velocity.

Is it cold where you are, this time of year?
You didn't leave a scar.

A stream of numbers hit a screen,
and you're expected to know what they mean.
Throughout the conflict I was serene,
I can't outrun the sadness I've seen.

Are you willing to resist?,
For people you've never met.
The devil's wheels revolves,
but it needs to be reset.

Never, never try to guage temperature,
When you tend to travel at such speed.
It's our velocity.

Please tell me.
Is it cold where you are this time of year?
You didn’t leave a scar.

I’ve got no one to call,
In the middle of the night anymore.

I’m just alone,
With these thoughts.

I’ve got no one to call,
In the middle of the night anymore.

I’m just alone,
With my thoughts.

I watched a film to change my feelings,
Strong enough to bear a burden.
If everyone became this sensitive,
I wouldn’t have to be so sensitive.

If everyone became so sensitive,
Perhaps I wouldn’t be so sensitive.

Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to,
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to,
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to,
Love is a lie.

I’ve got no one to call,
In the middle of the night anymore.
I’m just alone,
With these thoughts.

I’ve got no one to call,
In the middle of the night anymore.
I’m just alone,
With my thoughts.

Never, never try to guage temperature,
When you tend to travel at such speed.
It's our velocity.
