Paying Back the World Lyrics by The Vigilance Committee

Lost Again

2014

Pedaling along the pathway
Numbers ticking
Changing cities
They're whizzing by quickly
Is there any hope to spare
Hope to finding a place out there?
Pay us now, world, you owe us

Thinking of the time we woke up
Underneath the stars above us
I could have died happy
Then the twinkles kept on burning
Burning as our souls decayed
Help us find a way back in time
Back in time the world was mine

The dollar you owe is a waste
Everything is temporary
And this money doesn't pay
Pay us back all the time we waste
I still feel the world owes us
It's not the case, they won't serve us
