Songtext zu 'Famous Aimless' von Mat Mchugh

Well I heard they built an island in the pacific
Size of texas, made of plastic
Well I heard they built a bomb that could mow us all down that won't make a sound
Well I heard they built a monument to broken things
To money, power, fame, all brings
Where people gather 'round in their diamond rings
Hoping things start spreading

While another day goes by
There's famous aimless and I don't know why
On our screens, in our dreams, in our magazines, shine so bright like the stars in the sky
So tell me what it is I know
I must be missing something but I'm not so sure
So tell me all the days, all the ways, all the time it takes
All the real, all the fakes, where this show
Will go?

Well I heard they found a message written on the sun
Said 'love's the only way to end what we begun'
They're keeping it a secret, got a race to run
More money to come
Well I saw my baby born, saw my father die
I felt a cold wind blow, heard my mother cry
Stood in a hurricane, lay under the sky
Found a road, kept treading

While another day goes by
There's famous aimless and I don't know why
On our screens, in our dreams, in our magazines, shine so bright like the stars in the sky
So tell me what it is I know
I must be missing something but I'm not so sure
So tell me all the days, all the ways, all the time it takes
All the real, all the fakes, where this show
Will go?

If we keep running to escape
Going in circles, finding ways
To envy, conspire, covet, hate
Then we'll just be wasting our time
Falling in line, heeding no sign
Stuck neither asleep nor awake
