Living On Earth

(album: The Machine Stops - 2016)

I didn't know, no one told me of this
That living on Earth is no life of bliss
Those halcyon days when time slips away
Our love won't exist

It's hard to leave when your roots are so deep
The learning curve it runs so steep
Landing in our open eyes
Turning towards the power
A world full of dust, deep
Esteemed or turned sour

I didn't know, no one told me of this
That living on Earth is no life of bliss
Those halcyon days when time slips away
Our love won't exist

It's hard to leave when your roots are so deep
The learning curve it runs so steep
Landing in our open eyes
Turning towards the power
A world full of dust, deep
Esteemed or turned sour

Landing in our open eyes
Turning towards the power
A world full of dust, deep
Esteemed or turned sour

Ah, yes I remember those little white lies
The little white lies that you said to me
About this Earth's misery

No arms to hold me when I rest
I shave my skin, our love will end
The little white lies that you said to me
About this Earth's misery

The little white lies that you said to me
White lies
The little white lies that you said to me
Little white lies, the little white lies
The little white lies that you said to me
About this Earth's misery
