Lyrics
Where are my moves?
What do I hope to prove?
How do I change the game?
Turn on the charm
Don’t set off any alarms
And remember to do no harm
The walls are closing in
It’s time to start again
I can feel it in the air
I can hear it on the wind
My fears are coming true
I can’t feel my hands
I can’t stand my ground
I don’t know where I am
The walls are closing in
It’s time to start again
There’s no time to panic
No time to run
No time to change my mind
Before it’s done
Where is the Moon?
Where is the Sun?
Where do I go when it’s done?
Where are my moves?
What do I hope to prove?
How do I change my groove?
The walls are closing in
It’s time to start again
