Parts Per Million - Rise Against

There’s something wrong with the words that we’re not saying
And the silence we’re creating
Like a ghost note symphony
There’s something wrong and the temperature is rising
Ignoring every siren as we’re marching towards the cliff

But these are choices that we don’t have to make
Block out the voices
‘Cause they have led you astray
What I’ve been trying to say to you is that

There’s something in the water
There must be something in the air
Just ’cause I can’t put my finger on it
It doesn’t mean that-
That it’s not there

Yeah we are turned on
But then we all turned out
As we are hypnotised by the sparkling lies
We fall under their spell

But don’t forget that these are choices (choices)
That we don’t have to make
So many voices that have led us astray
We can’t keep anything down
The room is spinning around

There must be something in the water
Yeah there’s something in the air
Just cause I can’t put my finger on it
It doesn’t mean that-
That it’s not there

You are the grains of sand
That slip through my hands again
And we are the hourglass
Love like a flame that can’t be held
Somewhere beyond the lives we burn
Lies the point of no return
Like the sand in the hourglass

(But there is something on!)
(But there is something on!)
