Heartbeat Lyrics - Kaleidoscope - Mekong Delta

In the shadow of our industry 

we constructed all these big machines 

symbolizing what we want to be 

superpowers of insanity 

Accepting all of this bureaucracy 

content to be another wannabe 

obscured by all of this complexity 

consumed as fuel for even bigger dreams 

Little voices saying please sign here 

you know these children are too young my dear 

and the endless sound of moving parts 

replaced the rhythm of their strained hearts 

While the wheels continue turning 

We still believe in sold out learning 

in the center are these blinded eyes 

masked by a melted fire out of ice 

Answers finally came to me 

inside a plastic strawberry 

Creeping through your cancered skin 

Remember that your life is a sin 

Lost like a heartbeat 

we will never hear 

Caught by the house of coldness 

we all fear 

And in our blindness we can't see 

the ghost of all we used to be 

In the daylight of our destiny 

Swimming in reflected vanity 

So you smoke another cigarette 

One more thing in life that you'll regret 

While the wheels continue turning 

we still believe in sold out learning 

in the center are these blinded eyes 

masked by a melted fire out of ice 

Lost like a heartbeat 

we will never hear 

Caught by the house of coldness 

we all fear 

and in our blindness we can't see 

the ghost of all we used to be
