lyrics

In the room of night
We're digested by the beast
Darkness is a hunger
That swallows everything
The glow of distant homes
Like tiny islands on the sea
Can we cross the chasm
Between you and me?

There's too much room

In the room of night
We're so comfy being bored
Our heads too full of emptiness
To sail to distant shores
Secure in little nests
With all our pretty things
There's no need to worry
If there's no time to think

There's too much room

In the room of night
We pray for revolution
At last the Messiah comes
To rewrite the constitution
We didn't lift a finger
We merely cast the ballot
Are we surprised to realize
We're swirling down the toilet?

There's too much room
