When We Disappear Lyrics - Clock Opera

First day took the ABC away 

And I didn't speak up when the numbers changed 

Then they drained the colours that we drew 

And when I turned my back, they came for you 

I walked away but then they offered more 

Said I was the one that they've been waiting for 

But even as I signed upon the page 

The letters that I wrote began to fade 

Oh tell me, will there be no witness, 

No ripples on the surface, 

When we disappear? 

Oh are we obsolete and beaten, 

Is history repeating, 

That ringing in your ears 

I saw a sign that I've been fighting for 

I realized the ??? I was 

But there was no one standing in between 

And there is no one left to speak for me 

Oh tell me, will there be no witness, 

No ripples on the surface, 

When we disappear? 

Are we already obsolete and beaten, 

Is history repeating, 

That ringing in your ears 

I'm a drop in the ocean, 

An ear on the plain 

Are we the ones we've been waiting for 

Are we the ones we've been waiting for
