The world is never quiet
Even silence makes a sound
A pin-prick, a blank strike
The world is never quiet
Even silence makes a sound
A pin-prick, a blank strike
What was proud is still as proud
Watch it unfold
On lcd screen sets, so we really
Never, ever have to deal with it
Each pixel is a story
Of what there was before
Each cathode ray disguises
Just what we're looking for
From the great north to a working man's hand
There's a story in the desert
Below the cobblestones the sand
Our indulgence is just one step away
Lust has no end when there's
No end and no one awake to say
Are we afraid of you?
Are we the same as you?
Each pixel is a story of what there was before
Each wire tapped for water, to homogenize the poor
Each commercial will remind
Us that things couldn't get much worse
Are we afraid of you?
Are we the same as you?
