Calexico All Systems Red
Felt a tremor stir beneath my breath That forecasts storms on the Gallup poll Woke up from the nightmare news And hoping to read a sign in the morning air Nothing changes here and nothing improves All say my friends who just want out And leave these troubles behind Scatter like paper in the eye of the storm Documented with a silence note It's only heard from far, far away More cards in play, following suit Everywhere you look, you only see red Wonder when to call off the race Watching a horse running down its last legs Just when you think it couldn't get much worse Watch the numbers rise on the death toll And the chimes of freedom flash and fade Only heard from far, far away I hear you can't trust in your own Now the grey is broken in the early morn And the words forming barely have a voice It's just your heart that's breaking without choice Everything you heard is distorted in your head Bouncing off the walls, unraveling the thread Staying up with the blue screen glow Forgetting everything you ever dreamed years ago When the dread is flowing down my veins I want to tear it all down and build it up again Hear your heart that's breaking without choice I want to hear those chimes ring again Ring again © BUG MUSIC;
