lyrics

Once they bring the first in, you don't forget it
By the third there's no mind
Platform and an armchair, Golden stands up there
You forget you're fine
We came in during one or two
Straight from the front you know he sees you
Do you ask yourself if it's what you want?
All the time is gone, forever is through
You know it, too

Now, here's how it panned out: I have to find you
And they looked past my sign
Golden knows what I've been through, just looks where he wants to
And I'm on his time
Couldn't get far enough from those
So I hid myself in a room of coats

Talk to me, why do you hesitate?
You said you thought it through, you said it's not too late
Why don't you talk to me? Red tape around your life
Can't undermine control, moving around your strife
Why don't you talk to me? Why do you hesitate?
Why don't you leave your head? Stuck in your hallway state
And now the tiles fade, the collective mind is made
