Yes, axiomatic subject matter, executed with absolute lucidity

We can't keep deferring action,
Only surviving by the skin of our teeth.
We can't keep deferring action,
Only surviving by the skin of our teeth.
We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.
We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.

We will, we will never be sane
We will, we will never be sane
We will, we will never be sane
In an unsane system
Keep the tempo up, keep the pressure on
Keep the tempo up, keep the pressure on
Keep the tempo up, someone take the first step,
Be brave and cave in.

Alright

(Alright, I admit it, we are totally lost)
Imagine that, and then they say..

We've lost the movement, we've lost the beat.
We got so tied up in making a profit
That we choked when we realised that it was at our feet
We've lost the movement, we've lost the beat.
We're all made of the same dark matter,
It's intrensic that we rise to our feet.
We'll start a movement, we'll start a beat.
We're all made of the same dark matter,
It's intrensic that we rise to our feet.

We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.
We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.

We will, we will never be sane
We will, we will never be sane
We will, we will never be sane
In an unsane system
Keep the tempo up, keep the pressure on
Keep the tempo up, keep the pressure on
Keep the tempo up, someone take the first step,
Be brave and cave in.

We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.
We're sick of the same old story,
Tonight the motionless must vacate,
So we can accelerate out of a stagnant society.

We can't keep deferring action,
Only surviving by the skin of our teeth.
We can't keep deferring action,
Only surviving by the skin of our teeth.
