Land of Silk & Money

Every drop that drops into the sea

May become a wave for you and me

People come but people don't let go

Till they fall like soldiers in a row

See all that you're seeing

The future's reminiscent of a theme

I breathe the air that you're breathing

But I still feel the indifference in between

Method acting life on TV screens

Turn to dust in humanity's machine

Feel them, they're knocking on my door

Well I've stopped counting the bodies on the floor

See all that you're seeing

The future's reminiscent of a theme

I breathe the air that you're breathing

But I still feel the indifference in between

I can see the American dream

I can feel the American dream

I can dream the American dream

But I can't be the American dream

I'm stuck in the middle, I can't go back

I'm hiding in a place where I'm not misplaced

No traffic signs that amplify

The thunder in my heart, just pass them by

I've got the borders in my head

And roll the dice quick to make words unsaid

Scratch these notes to pieces

Tie up loose ends and just start again
