DEAD CENTURIES
Johnny's got a story about this girl
who doesn't want to break free
He's out chasing midnights in the same old dream
And Johnny likes to talk about
the things that he wished you would believe
But all the rivers pull him out to sea
Come out to the middle with me
Always changing, rearranging, reinventing, new belief
Come out to the middle with me
Always changing, rearranging
Somehow we always
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the dust in the dream
of light and of heat
Come on
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the shadows that sleep
in the softest release
Come on
Shake free
Lucy's chasing shadows
in the corners of his room
while he sleeps
She's drifting with the lights from the traffic below
And Lucy's pretty sure that there's a reason for everything
She just wants a bit part in the show
Come out to the middle with me
Always changing, rearranging, reinventing, new belief
Come out to the middle with me
Always changing, rearranging
Somehow we always
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the dust in the dream
of light and of heat
Come on
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the shadows that sleep
in the softest release
Come on
Shake free
So all the doors keep closing
and some wars are never done
But come on
Get clean
Bite down on your cavities
Still alive
in the wake of a dead century
And we don't have to die
living the eulogy
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the dust in the dream
of light and of heat
Come on
Shake free
of dead centuries
and the shadows that sleep
in the softest release
Come on
Shake free
Johnny's solitaire is getting scary
He's back out to sea
He just wants to be some part of the story we all know
Lucy's holding on and holding out
And kicking in her sleep
She just wants to be some part of the show
And they're both trading hours
Playing scaffold for the next machines
Like all the ones who came before
Half alive on hope
Lucy's pretty sure
That there's a reason for
Everything
Lucy's pretty sure
That there's a reason for
Dead centuries
Dead centuries
Dead centuries
Dead centuries.
