lyrics

Crawl up from the radio
Activity
Speaking in codes
I never learned to know

There’s something soothing
Preserving a mystery
Neat little rows
Wolves in savior’s clothes

My heart is racing
At 2am again
With the headlights cracked
My heart is racing

Across the wasteland
Place your bets raise your colors
A loss of taste when
You share the spoils with some others
Everyone is buying up and tuning in

Returning to the well
Like the questions get answers
You make it rain
But fewer cures, more cancers

My heart’s out pacing
Outrunnng the speed of reason
With the headlights out
My heart is racing

Across the wasteland
Place your bets raise your colors
A loss of taste when
You share the spoils with some others
Everyone is buying up and tuning in

Are we gonna watch it again
(My heart is racing)
I think it’s gonna cave in
(My heart is racing)

Have you got what you want
Have you got far more than you could ever use
(My heart is racing, across the wasteland)

Can you stand to win
If you can’t stand above
All the people who would lose
(my heart is racing)

My heart is racing
Across the wasteland
My heart is racing
Across the wasteland
My heart is

racing

Crawl up from the radio
Activity
Speaking in codes
I never learned to know
