We Are Being Reduced

歌詞

Take the hand that takes away And keep it in your pocket Take the words that I say And launch them in a rocket As they leave the atmosphere Watch their meaning disappear Apologies that no one hears, my dear I'm wearing out my vocal chords Because I am alone and bored Will you take me up to 24,000 feet Concorde? Hearts are broken everyday By those who take their love away Mistaking satellites for stars in bars Above the earth we receive the news: We are being reduced
