lyrics

chemical reactions collected in the dust
waiting to combust
combinations i can't remember
for the terms of your surrender

waiting to combust
-repeat x3-

chemical reactions collected in the dust
combinations waiting to combust

one by one the gears align
are set in motion and move in time
their teeth they grind together
and make a sound that i have never
heard in my life but it makes it hard to breath

(waiting to combust)

in tandem they all revolve
working problems that men can't solve
ones zeros
nothing in between

chemical reactions collected in the dust
waiting to combust
combinations i can't remember
for the terms of your surrender

i tried to tell them all
just how far we had to fall
reciprocity
terminal velocity
and all at ones the stars align
they find their voices and speak in rhyme
the sky it shines like summer
and tells us all to find another
conduit for our idolatry

(waiting to combust)
(combust)

chemical reactions collected in the dust
waiting to combust
chemical reactions collected in the dust
waiting to combust
