Waking Lyrics by James

Girl at the End of the World

2016

Suffer the children who question every value
I spoke with questions, a program to machine
We have a blueprint, the suit don't fit, we've split the seams
Thoughts are contagious, with thinking up some way

Lies, lies that have choked us
Lies, lies that almost broke us

Brothers, sisters, we've been fooled
They don't want us to fulfil
Just enough to pay your bills
Entertainment, don't risk a view

We are schooled, we are schooled, to follow the rules
We are schooled, we are schooled, to follow the rules

Beliefs define us, see the world the way we believe
This mirror drives us, we can't get out the way

Lies, lies that have choked us
Lies, lies that almost broke us

Brothers, sisters, we've been fools
They don't want us to fulfil
Just enough to pay your bills
Entertainment, don't risk a view

We are schooled, we are schooled, to follow the rules
We are schooled, we are schooled, to follow the rules
