lyrics

TEN, NINE, EIGHT (lyrics by Pickering)

Forgetting the last two should make the next two a bit more surprising
Chasing the thoughts of you just to get me through not remembering
It's easy to fault all the ones who crave every pint of attention
And harder to find the rest now that three plus three equals seven
We're mining the mountains down, convenience lacking in patience
Thrown open the floodgates and if we don't learn to swim we'll drown

We're riding mercury into obscurity from balance
Hiding from facts and I'm finding it hard not to lose faith in common sense
Killing with money, casting fate as your abductor
Milk and honey, twisted faces facing this brave new world

Now all we are is bleeding out and trying to hide it
Looking around for the piece that fell but we just can't find it
I just can't think with my head still ringing with all of what's been said
It clears up in time to see all the things that we should have done instead
This sudden sunrise now in the West will make it hard to sleep
That or the firestorm, let's hope the flash burns are just skin deep

Forgetting the last two should make the next two a bit more surprising
Forgetting the last two should make the next one the last we'll see
