Driver Friendly Twenty Centuries Of Sleep lyrics

[Verse 1]
The city's hungry
I can feel it in the heat
My stomach's empty
I feel it in my teeth
Heard your voice last night in my sleep
A silhouette of a memory I wish I didn't keep
When the nightmare's over
All that's left behind
Are the same words on repeat:
Carry on, carry on, carry on

[Chorus]
Our best laid plans
Are never in our hands
Caught up, cast away
Like curses in the wind
Search a waste of desert sand
Caught up, cast away
Like curses in the wind


[Verse 2]
I feel the weight of a legacy
It's bearing down on me
Your voice is haunting me
All the time it sings
Same words at night in my sleep
Same words on repeat
It carries on for centuries
I watch the future unfold and truth be told
It caught me clean off guard
Things fall apart, the center cannot hold

Twenty centuries of sleep

With our backs against the wall
We're not caving in
Let the tide meet the shoreline
We can drink it all in
