Lyrics
The clock is running out of time
The passage of time is coming to an end.
Another life just passes by
Another life is slipping away without much notice or impact.
The painted color black and white
The world is depicted in simple, contrasting terms of black and white.
Another fight another lie
There's a continual cycle of conflict and dishonesty.
Another memory fades away
More memories are disappearing or becoming less vivid.
And we just sway through night and day
We're navigating through life's ups and downs, from night to day, without a clear direction.
Another footstep burried deep
Actions or movements are being forgotten or ignored.
Under a million other feet
Our individual actions or identities are getting lost among many others.
Is this really what we're fighting for
Questioning the purpose or significance of what we're struggling for.
Is this all or why don't we want more
Wondering if there's more to life than what we currently pursue.
What is it, what we want
Asking about desires or goals.
What is it, what we need
Asking about necessities.
What is it, what we think
Questioning our thoughts or perceptions.
What is it, what we dream
Asking about our aspirations or ambitions.
When our minds trick us out of sight
When our thoughts mislead us, causing us to lose sight of reality.
All we need, all we need, all we need's a headline
All that seems required or sought after is attention or recognition, possibly in the form of a headline.
Oh, oh, oh
Reiteration of the desire for attention or recognition in the form of a headline.
Oh, oh, a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
-Oh, oh, a headline
-You look ahead on words that last
Focusing on lasting words but being unable to see beyond a history filled with past events.
But all you see is endless past
The past seems endless and pervasive.
Look at the war and fights we're dead
Observing ongoing conflicts and wars but still holding on to trust or hope.
Still trusts the last thing in our head
Trusting despite the persistence of conflict.
What is it, what we want
Repetition of the questions regarding desires, needs, thoughts, and dreams, and the loss of sight due to mental deception.
What is it, what we need
-What is it, what we think
-What is it, what we dream
-When our minds trick us out of sight
-All we need, all we need, all we need's a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
Continued emphasis on the desire for attention or recognition in the form of a headline.
Oh, oh, a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
-Oh, oh, a headline
-Is this life just burning up like candles long alight
Reflecting on life, which seems to burn away like candles, implying a fleeting existence.
Is this world just upside down like death but still alive
Perceiving the world as chaotic or contradictory, resembling death while still being alive.
The clock is running out of time
Repeated themes of time passing, life slipping away, and the desire for action or expression.
Another life just passes by
-What am I doing here right now
-I should be out there scream and shout
-What is it, what we want
Reiteration of questions about desires, needs, thoughts, and dreams, along with the impact of mental deception.
What is it, what we need
-What is it, what we think
-What is it, what we dream
-When our minds trick us out of sight
-All we need, all we need, all we need's a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
Continued emphasis on the desire for attention or recognition in the form of a headline.
Oh, oh, a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
-Oh, oh, a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
Reiteration of the longing for attention or recognition through a headline.
Oh, oh, a headline
-Oh, oh, oh
-Oh, oh, a headline
