Sinking fast, the weight chained to my feet

No time to argue with belief

I'm not alone, a thousand others dropping

Faster than me

What put me here?

Nothing to hold on to

Nowhere to brake



Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?

Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?

No time to question the choices I make

I've got to follow another direction (although fall down is much cooler)



The last thing I remember was climbing up the stairs

I threw the window open in challenge and despair

I don't know what I needed

I needed time 

I needed to escape

I saw the future turn

Upside-down and hesitate.



Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?

Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?

No time to question the choices I make

I've got to follow another direction

Accelerate.



The vista I see now is changing

Uncertainty is suffocating

Our hope has never felt so great and

Lit up down

A pounding pulse

To make it go

Make it slow down,

Go.



Where is the ripcord, the trapdoor, the key?

Where is the cartoon escape-hatch for me?

No time to question the choices I make

I've got to follow another direction.



The city's burning, it's like it's ready to explode

Accelerate to make it slow

Make it go

Accelerate to make it slow

Make it go

I'm incomplete

I'm incomplete

I'm incomplete.
