Twisted Logic Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sunlight opened up my eyes
To see for the first time, it opened them up
And tonight, rivers will run dry
Not for the first time, rivers will run
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Hundreds of years in the future
There could be computers lookin' for life on Earth
Don't fight for the wrong side
Say what you feel like
Say how you feel
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You'll go backwards, but then
You'll go forwards again
You'll go backwards, but then
You'll go
[Verse 3]
Created, then drilled and invaded
If somebody made it, someone will mess it up
And you are not wrong to ask, “Who does this belong to?”
It belongs to all of us
Sunlight opened up my eyes
To see for the first time, it opened them up
And tonight, rivers will run dry
Not for the first time, rivers will run
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Hundreds of years in the future
There could be computers lookin' for life on Earth
Don't fight for the wrong side
Say what you feel like
Say how you feel
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
You'll go backwards, but then
You'll go forwards again
You'll go backwards, but then
You'll go
[Verse 3]
Created, then drilled and invaded
If somebody made it, someone will mess it up
And you are not wrong to ask, “Who does this belong to?”
It belongs to all of us
About
Genius Annotation
“Twisted Logic” is the final (listed) track on X&Y and is pretty slow-burning until the final hook, when it turns into an epic rock-out. The song is a warning that if we are not careful with the planet, we will be sure to lose it (and ourselves) one day.
