Lyrics
There's a fragile tension
That's keeping us going
It may not last forever
But oh well, it's blowing

There's something magical in the air
Something so tragic we have to care

There's a strange obsession
That's drawing us nearer
We don't understand it
It never gets clearer

There's something mystical in our dreams
So simplistic, it kicks and screams

All we will seem to reek on the edge of collapse
Nothing can keep us down

There's a dizzying feeling
That's keeping us flying
Through glittering galas
Without even trying

There's something radical in our hands
Nothing logical to our plans
