Silversun Pickups - Future Foe Scenarios Lyrics

Send "Future Foe Scenarios" Ringtone to Cell Phone

the things we laid do not amount to much 
made of abandoned wood loose stones and such 

this revolution baby 
proves who you work for lately 

release the castaways who run amok 
from self appointed winds which blow and such 
when present tense gets strangled in the mire 
made of our cozy decomposing wires 

who do you work for baby 
and does it work for you lately 

but when the night is over and the walls start burning 
when fire starts to matter and the clock is churning 
cliches and other chatter keeps our minds from 
learning 

it's alright 

the things we laid do not amount to much 
made up of thought balloons and cotton swabs 
when present tense gets strangled in the woes 
made of our future foe scenarios 

this revolution baby 
proves who you work for lately 
who do you work for baby 
and does it work for you lately 

but when the night is over and the walls keep linking 
when fire starts to matter and the clock keeps sinking 
cliches and other chatter keeps our minds from 
thinking 
our minds keep thinking 

it's alright 

that's when it turned on me 
a motorcade of 'meant to be's’ 
parades of beauty queens 
where soft entwines make kindling 
these many detailed things 
like broken nails and plastic rings 
will win by keeping me 
from speaking to my new darling 
and there's no way to know 
our future foe scenarios 
that's when it turned on me 
where bobby pins hold angel wings 

it's alright
