verse
Can't stop thinking about if and when I'd die
For now I see that 'if' and 'when' are truly different cries
For 'if' is purely panic, and 'when' is solemn sorrow
And one invades today, while the other spies tomorrow
pre-chorus
We're surrounded, and we're hounded
There's no 'above,' or 'under,' or 'around' it
For 'above' is blind belief, and 'under' is sword to sleeve
And 'around' is scientific miracle, let's pick 'above' and see
For if and when we go 'above,' the question still remains:
Are we still in love, and is it possible we feel the same?
And that's when going 'under' starts to take my wonder
But until that time, I'll try to sing this...
chorus
If I keep moving, they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'll morph to someone else
verse
He'll always try to stop me, that Nicolas Bourbaki
He's got no friends close, but those who know him most know
When I'd hear him mock me, that's almost stopped me
Well we're surrounded, and we're hounded
There's no above or a secret door
If not to run straight through all our tormentors?
But until that time I'll try and sing this...
chorus
If I keep moving, they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'll morph to someone else
I'll morph to someone else
bridge
Lights they blink to me, transmitting things to me
Ones and zeroes, ergo this symphony
Anybody listening? Ones and zeroes
Count to infinity, ones and zeroes
pre-chorus
I'm surrounded, and I'm hounded
There's no 'above,' or 'under,' or 'around' it
For 'above' is blind belief, and 'under' is sword to sleeve
And 'around' is scientific miracle, let's pick 'above' and see
For if and when we go 'above,' the question still remains:
Are we still in love, and is it possible we feel the same?
And that's when going 'under' starts to take my wonder
I'll morph to someone else
chorus
If I keep moving, they won't know
I'll morph to someone else
What they throw at me's too slow
I'll morph to someone else
I'll morph to someone else
I'll morph to someone else
