Suspicious Science

(instrumental)

You’ve gummed up the gears with your suspicious science
Why focus on love when you can focus on violence?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you
You’ve gummed up the gears with your perplexing power
Why hold out a hand when you can curl up and cower?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you-hoo
So if that’s where you draw the line
There’s nothing left to do

Still after all those years
All the tears that were shed overhead
Running through the wasteland of a new home
Somewhere to roam again
But it’s looking monochrome, my friend

You’ve gummed up the gears with your suspicious science
Why focus on love when you can focus on violence?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you
You’ve gummed up the gears with your perplexing power
Why hold out a hand when you can curl up and cower?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you-hoo, boo-hoo
So if that’s where you draw the line
There’s nothing left to do

Seen from the losing side
Worlds collide as we’re climbing through time
Rearrange and reset, like a new game
With someone to blame for this
‘Cause it’s looking like the same abyss
And everything in frame’s amiss
And I’m feeling like I’m all alone
With nobody there to call up my phone

Today, there’s a way
To take the pain out of our play but
Now and again (and again and again)
Feels like I don’t know what to say
While trying to survive
Inside a world that’s crumbling
Listen for the ring
And crowd together
G6 em7 A7
To outlast the weather

Because you’ve gummed up the gears with your suspicious science
Why focus on love when you can focus on violence?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you
You’ve gummed up the gears with your perplexing power
Why hold out a hand when you can curl up and cower?
And everyone knows, everyone knows it’s you-hoo, boo-hoo
So if that’s where you draw the line
There’s nothing left to do

Still after all those years
All our fears proven right overnight
Talking like we’ll live ‘til the sun goes dark
By keeping the spark alive
So you’re shifting into overdrive
Holding onto hope that you’ll survive
By pretending that we share a boat
Suspicious science keeps you afloat
