Unintended Long Term Effects - Thursday

Paper crane and a dirty train

Trying to drive you away

The arrows fit between our lips

Paper crane and a dirty train

Trying to drive you away

The arrows fit between our lips

In the final stage

Chemicals dissolve and the family disappears

See the lapse in between the cracks in the atomic age

Like a shot in the vein

Like a shot in the vein

Can a pilot see the distant arc of history

I saw these lies all burst at once into blinding rays

We need a truck

We need something to take the dreams away

The dream of peace is called to sleep in the passing pain

Like a shot in the vein

Like s shot in the vein

There’s a laptop hanging by a string

In the flutter of a thousand paper wings

Put your faith in the chemicals

But you fear to crash and you overreact

When you hear the bomb going off

And you see the flash, it’s out of sync

When you take bitter pills

No sugarcoat can match the taste

A thousand paper cranes

Let down in the rain

A thousand paper cranes
