lyrics

"Escalator"

Those old days are long gone
Replaced by something else,
where everyday's the same
monotonous motionless purgatory
You're doomed to stay the same


There's a funny sence of motion ---
standing still

It's like walking up a broken---
escalator

When I walk I'm not in motion ---
Or so I feel

Dizzy walking walking up a broken---
escalator



The city is a tangled mess, of poles
and wires and ugly buildings,
Like gnarled roots and leafless branches, and snaking vines
in some cold dead winter swamp,


Crushed by mediocrity,
This catatonic life, staring back at me


There's a funny sence of motion ---
standing still

It's like walking standing on up a broken---
escalator

When I walk I'm not in motion ---
Or so I feel

Dizzy walking up a broken---
escalator


Chorus X2
