Radiohead - The Numbers lyrics
[Radiohead - The Numbers lyrics]
It holds us like a phantom
It touches like a breeze
It shines it's understanding
See, the moon is smiling
Open on all channels ready to receive
'Cause we're not at the mercy
Of your chimeras and spells
Your chimeras and spells mm hmm
We are of the earth to her we do return
The future is inside us
It's not somewhere else
It's not somewhere else
It's not somewhere else
We call upon the people
The people have this power
The numbers don't decide the system is a lie
A river running dry the wings of butterflies
And you may pour us away like soup
Like we're pretty broken flowers
We'll take back what is ours
Take back what is ours
One day at a time
It touches like a breeze
It shines it's understanding
See, the moon is smiling
Open on all channels ready to receive
'Cause we're not at the mercy
Of your chimeras and spells
Your chimeras and spells mm hmm
We are of the earth to her we do return
The future is inside us
It's not somewhere else
It's not somewhere else
It's not somewhere else
We call upon the people
The people have this power
The numbers don't decide the system is a lie
A river running dry the wings of butterflies
And you may pour us away like soup
Like we're pretty broken flowers
We'll take back what is ours
Take back what is ours
One day at a time
