      I was just thinking the VERY same thing when hearing this tune after so long, that 2004-2008 period was like the golden age of indie/alternative bands, it was just everywhere you turned, if you scroll down the side of this page theres just a handful of the great bands that were going strong at the time. Memories...

    I'm not a man, I'm a machine
    Chisel me down until I am clean
    I buy books I never read
    And then I'll tell you some more about me
    Beneath the concrete there's a sound
    A muffled cry below the ground
    There is a poison in the air
    A mix of chemicals and fear
    manners are just hunches
    I'm not sure what they mean
    You're asking for commitment
    When I'm somewhere inbetween
    Never never try to gauge temperature
    When you tend to travel at such speed
    It's our velocity
    Is it cold where you are this time of the year?
    You didn't leave a scar
    A stream of numbers hit a screen
    And you're expected to know what they mean
    Throughout the conflict, I was serene
    I can't outrun the sadness I've seen
    Are you willing to resist
    The people you've never met?
    The devil's wheel revolves
    But it needs to be reset
    Never never try to gauge temperature
    When you tend to travel at such speed
    It's our velocity
    Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year?
    You didn't leave a scar
    I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
    I'm just alone with these thoughts
    I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
    I'm just alone with my thoughts
    I watched a film to change my feelings
    Strong enough to bear a burden
    If everyone became this sensitive
    I wouldn't have to be so sensitive
    If everyone became so sensitive
    Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive
    Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
    Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too
    Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
    Love is a lie
    I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
    I'm just alone with these thoughts
    I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
    I'm just alone with my thoughts
    Never never try to guage temperature
    When you tend to travel at such speed
    It's our velocity
