Maximo Park - Our Velocity

[00:30.93] I'm not a man, I'm a machine

[00:33.21] Chisel me down until I am clean

[00:35.68] I buy books I never read

[00:37.94] And then I'll tell you some more about me

[00:41.93] 2

[00:44.43] --------------

[00:45.96] Beneath the concrete there's a sound

[00:48.17] A muffled cry below the ground

[00:50.71] There is a poison in the air

[00:52.94] A mix of chemicals and fear

[00:55.68] manners are just hunches

[00:58.21] I'm not sure what they mean

[01:00.70] You're asking for commitment

[01:03.47] When I'm somewhere inbetween

[01:05.93] Never never try to gauge temperature

[01:08.68] When you tend to travel at such speed

[01:12.92] It's our velocity

[01:14.68] Is it cold where you are this time of the year?

[01:20.18] You didn't leave a scar

[01:21.68] ---------

[01:31.94] A stream of numbers hit a screen

[01:34.43] And you're expected to know what they mean

[01:36.95] Throughout the conflict, I was serene

[01:39.45] I can't outrun the sadness I've seen

[01:42.21] Are you willing to resist

[01:44.68] The people you've never met?

[01:46.69] The devil's wheel revolves

[01:49.21] But it needs to be reset

[01:51.95] Never never try to gauge temperature

[01:54.95] When you tend to travel at such speed

[01:58.70] It's our velocity

[02:00.70] Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year?

[02:07.42] You didn't leave a scar

[02:08.70] ----------

[02:12.69] I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore

[02:17.45] I'm just alone with these thoughts

[02:20.42] --------

[02:22.44] I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore

[02:27.43] I'm just alone with my thoughts

[02:30.44] ---------

[02:42.43] I watched a film to change my feelings

[02:44.43] Strong enough to bear a burden

[02:47.18] If everyone became this sensitive

[02:49.67] I wouldn't have to be so sensitive

[02:52.21] If everyone became so sensitive

[02:54.67] Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive

[02:57.18] Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to

[02:59.95] Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too

[03:02.69] Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to

[03:05.47] Love is a lie

[03:07.45] I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore

[03:12.71] I'm just alone with these thoughts

[03:15.19] I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore

[03:22.71] I'm just alone with my thoughts

[03:26.19] Never never try to guage temperature

[03:29.68] When you tend to travel at such speed

[03:31.93] It's our velocity
