Staircase

Automaton drone
You're lost with no phone
And the home you made your own
Can never be paid for
The great in the small, the rise and the fall
And you come back for more
The need to belong
And the will to do no wrong
The ones that you lost, abandoned or crossed
Will haunt you
Plagued by poor health
But you stockpile more wealth
Congratulate yourself
A sense of proportion, an act of extortion
There's too much distortion
You sink in stages
As you're approaching middle ages
You're up to here in debt
Insidious tech, you're up to your neck
Why don't you give it a rest?

You'll never win this game
It seems I'm miles above the surface of the earth
I can see across the whole of London and beyond
Ships and thunderstorms at sea and beyond
A trillion stars in a billion galaxies
I gaze out across the millennia
it took the lights from these stars to reach the earth
I close my eyes
And breathe
I came here searching for something
But I don't remember what that thing is anymore
Did I dream you?
Or are you dreaming me now?
As your waking thoughts gradually take over
As all dreams are ultimately forgotten
And lost

The ones that you lost, abandoned or crossed
Aqueles que você perdeu, abandonou ou cruzou
Will haunt you
Vão te assombrar
Plagued by poor health
Afligido por má saúde
But you stockpile more wealth
Mas você acumula mais riqueza
Congratulate yourself
Parabenize-se
A sense of proportion, an act of extortion
Um senso de proporção, um ato de extorsão
There's too much distortion

You're up to here in debt
Você está até o pescoço em dívidas
Insidious tech, you're up to your neck
Tecnologia insidiosa, você está até o pescoço
Why don't you give it a rest?
Por que você não dá um descanso?
