Parts Per Million

There's something wrong with the words that we're not saying And the silence we're creating like a ghost note symphony There's something wrong and the temperature is rising Ignoring every siren as we're marching towards a cliff But these are choices that we don't have to make Block out the voices 'cause they have led you astray What I've been trying to say to you is that There's something in the water, there must be something in the air Just 'cause I can't put my finger on it, it doesn't mean that it's not there We are all turned on but then we all tune out As we are hypnotized by the sparkling lies We fall under their spell But don't forget that these are choices That we don't have to make, so many voices That have led us astray, we can't keep anything down The room is spinning around There must be something in the water, yeah there's something in the air Just 'cause I can't put my finger on it, it doesn't mean that it's not there You are the grains of sand that slip through my hands again And we are the hourglass, love like a flame that can't be held Somewhere beyond the lives we burn, lies the point of no return Like the sand in the hourglass But there is something in your eyes that shakes me back to life And though I can't put my finger on it Now I know we're gonna be alright It's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright 'Cause there is something in the water, yeah there is something in the water In this life we sink or swim or just float We all die yeah, but did we live at all?
