Description

Producer: Peter Slegar

Lyrics and translation

Original

Skipping through the headlines.

Looking for a sign of good times. Trying to keep it straight.

So I linger with the noises.

Hearing all the voices. Telling me to look away.

I used to be unstoppable. Young and indestructible.

Now I don't know what I'm looking for.

What is it that we settle for?

Second in the ephemeral. Life's become a metaphor.

'Cause we don't talk anymore.

Every day there's something better.

They're just a need for pleasure.

And I'm feeling more astray.

From all of those people lying.

From all of us who are trying.

To make it through another day.

I used to be unstoppable.

Young and indestructible.

Now I don't know what I'm looking for.

What is it that we settle for?

Second in the ephemeral.

Life's become a metaphor.

'Cause we don't talk anymore.

How about tears and war?

And how it ended wrong.

Still the show goes on.

This show that we call life.

With all its blinding lights.

And all connection gone.

I used to be unstoppable.

Young and indestructible.

Now I don't know what I'm looking for.

What is it that we settle for?

Second in the ephemeral.

Life's become a metaphor.

'Cause we don't talk anymore. On and on and on we go.

No opinions of our own. On and on and on and on we go.

'Cause we don't talk anymore. On and on and on we go.

No direction of our own.

On and on and on and on we go.

'Cause we don't talk anymore.
