All Mankind Be Still
We can see up to Saturn
But we're blind down on Earth
Understand cosmic patterns
But don't know our own worth
Building up higher towers
While our lives fall apart
What is wrong with this picture?
Oh, let's go back to the start
We can do what we want
We can do what we please
We know what we want
What do we need?
Lie here, be still
The universe won't stop without you
You don't have to change the world today
Be still and wait
Change is faster than progress
Burning time in the fire
Going forwards but backwards
Check your heart if I'm right
All the phones and computers
No-one knows who you are
It's the worst kind of future
Oh, let's go back to the start
We can do what we want
We can do what we please
We know what we want
What do we need?
Lie here, be still
The universe won't stop without you
You don't have to change the world today
Be still and wait
Lie here and be still
The universe won't stop without you
You don't have to change the world today
Be still and wait
We can do what we want
We can do what we please
We know what we want
What do we need?
We can do what we want
We can do what we please
What do we want?
What do we need?
Lie here and be still
The universe won't stop without you
You don't have to change the world today
Be still and wait
Be still and wait
