Sailling through the tunnels
   In the morning by yourself
   There's a very special feeling
   True sensation all is well
   If you stand and reach your arms out wide
   Close your eyes and try to fly
   It's an underground illusion
   Tricking you from side to side
  
   We knew all the answers
   And we shouted them like anthems
   Anxious and suspicious
   That God knew how much we cheated
  
   It can't come quickly enough
   And now you've spent your life
   Waiting for this moment
   And when you finally saw it come
   It passed you by and left you so defeated
  
   Skyscrapers rise between us
   Keeping me from finding you
   If the concrete architecture
   Dissapeared there'd be so few
   Of us left to navigate and
   Defend ourselves from the tide
   It's an underground illusion
   Tricking you from side to side
  
   There's no indication of
   What we were meant to be
   Sucking up to strangers
   Throwing wishes to the sea
  
   It can't come quickly enough
   And now you've spent your life
   Waiting for this moment
   And when you finally saw it come
   It passed you by and
   Left you so defeated
