Shiny Things in Fanfarlo

Let's not worry about images
Let's not worry about mind control
Let's stop talking about prisoners
All against an invisible wall
Let's not feel anything at all
And keep it inside your chest all night

Let's not worry about goin' extinct
We'll be preserved on a shelf somewhere.
Give us mirrors for company
Lock all the windows and doors when you leave

It's as if nothing happened
As if it was enough
Think we worked awfully gladly
Thinking of shiny things
Wasted a lot to get there
Burned all the bridges off
The last of the pterodactyls
Has headed out for the sea

Build us a new perpetuity
Tell us we've nothing to fear from ourselves
Now that we're painted so colorfully
We'll be replaced by someone somewhere soon

It's as if nothing happened
As if it was enough
Think we're all going blindly
Thinking of shiny things
Wasted a lot to get there
Burned all the bridges off
The last of the pterodactyls
Has headed out for the sea
