lyrics

name recognition! it will all be okay. do they really believe in anything? a little bit of sugar helps it go down a touch. get to feeling better, but never too much!

feedback loop, you know it’s a secret, but it’s out in the open air. you can’t always see it, but you always know that it’s there. go! turn the corner, and you’ll know it’s better with the wires exposed.

“all out of lifeboats,” they sigh as they say, “thoughts, prayers, and wishes, if you’ll just go away!” i saw them laughing, and you saw it, too. the ship might be sinking, “but at least,” they say, “it moves.”

feedback loop, it’s all a secret, but it’s out in the open air. you can’t always see it, but you always know that it’s there. go! it can be upsetting, i know, but it’s better with the wires exposed.
