Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't stop thinkin' about if and when I die
For now, I see that "if" and "when" are truly different cries
For "if" is purely panic
And "when" is solemn sorrow
And one invades today
While the other spies tomorrow
We're surrounded and we're hounded
There's no above or under or around it
For above is blind belief
And under is sword to sleeve
And around is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see
For if and when we go above, the question still remains
Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?
And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder
But until that time, I'll try to sing this
[Chorus]
If I keep movin', they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'm just a ghost
I'll morph to someone else
A defense mechanism mode
[Verse 2]
He'll always try to stop me, that Nicholas Bourbaki
He's got no friends close, but those who know him most know
He goes by Nico, he told me I'm a copy
When I'd hear him mock me, that's almost stopped me
Well, we're surrounded and we're hounded
There's no above or a secret door
What are we here for
If not to run straight through all our tormentors?
But until that time, I'll try to sing this
[Chorus]
If I keep movin', they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'm just a ghost
I'll morph to someone else
A defense mechanism mode
[Refrain]
I'll morph to someone else
[Bridge]
Lights, they blink to me
Transmitting things to me
Ones and zeroes
Ergo this symphony
Anybody listening?
Ones and zeroes
Count to infinity
Ones and zeroes
[Verse 3]
I'm surrounded and I'm hounded
There's no above or under or around it
For above is blind belief
And under is sword to sleeve
And around is scientific miracle, let's pick "above" and see
For if and when we go above, the question still remains
Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?
And that's when goin' under starts to take my wonder
But until that time
[Chorus]
I'll morph to someone else
I'm just a ghost
[Chorus]
If I keep movin', they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'm just a ghost
I'll morph to someone else
A defense mechanism mode
[Chorus]
If I keep movin', they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
A defense mechanism mode
I'll morph to someone else
[Outro]
I'll morph to someone else
