lyrics

I pull the brake but I go anyway
You can't stop a thing that's alive for heaven's sake, it's alive
We turn the wheel of the world on it's guilt
Crying over crumbs from the babies that we've built
With our tongues and our love

We are the head of the class
We are the lost and happy only glove
Was it the sky that we fed?
I think we're moving too fast
Or are we moving on?
I think we're moving too..

I move ahead but my friends they are so far
We all move along to the drums and the stars
Everything that's good takes time in first flight
These are the words that we know we should live by
But we don't, we don't, we don't, we don't

We are the head of the class
We are the lost and happy only glove
Was it the sky that we fed?
I think we're moving too fast
Or are we moving on?
I think we're moving too fast

Who's gonna call the operator?
Can't stop a train without the brakes

We are the head of the class
We are the lost and happy only glove
Was it the sky that we fed?
I think we're moving too fast
Or are we moving on?

I think we're lost and happy all alone
