Children Of Fall Panorama
[Verse 1]
What about longer lives
At the expense of longer hours
What about feeling better
But with a smaller range of emotions
What about anxiety
As just another lifestyle accessory
And what about killing the machine
Just to keep the wheels turning
What's about inadequacy and apathy?
Different names for the same thing
It is
[Chorus]
Being smaller than the taste at hand
Being smaller than
Too much to care for, so we don't care at all [x2]
Being smaller than the taste at hand [x2]
[Verse 2]
Then there are passive-aggressive brutes
Yes I know all about you
And there's world politics with honorable intentions
With nothing but dead children
At its feet
What about Brazilian farmers, Chechnyan mothers, American Indians
Sandi lesbians and first world dreamers?
Yes, we are all left wanting, it leaves us
[Chorus]
Feeling smaller than the task at hand [x2]
Too much to care for, so we don't care at all [x2]
Feeling smaller than the task at hand [x2]
Too much to care for, so we don't care at all [x2]
At least that's how it feels
[Bridge-Final Verse]
This is who we are
Less than we aspired to
And in our reflection
So have we shaped everything [x3]
