Year Zero

Was that a blue canary
Behind your hands cuffed over the two by two
A little friendly fire
He's just a boy who had your back, covering you

If you could mail some takeaway would you?
And if you did would time begin to slow?
Way down, way, way down
To bring the noise of your life right back to year zero
I guess we'll never know

Where is the road we travel?
Can we surround ourselves
With a heartfelt crew?
We keep a loaded cabinet
With episodes of the Lord to tried and true

But if the time begins to shift out of you
We'll hide the signs that says there's no follow through
Down, down, way, way down
To bring the noise of your life right back to year zero
We'll never ever know

I need a dog's inspection
We got rows upon rows of other sides we knew
In the photography section
The stopped paths will fix from a developer's view

And once we saw the end is coming through
It was revealed there is still much to do
About the ins and outs
Of the life you live on the surface
You answer for nobody
No, nobody
