lyrics

It moves in a zig-zag form
Defying all the science of the norm
It grows up from defeat
A flower in the wretched heat
It’s fertilized and prized
Among the swarm

It’s promised in the shiny distant light
Teased from the disease of left and right
A silent beacon in our heart
That can tear the world apart
It’s the oscillating curve
Of day and night

We like to see a comeback
So we cast ourselves behind
A vote against our interests
A grievance in our mind
We’re inching up to heaven
Where the wicked come to play
Progress is the purpose
It’s the way

It copulates in spaces found between
The knowing glowing faces on our screen
It’s circuit is complete
With every status, every tweet
A million tiny deaths
In the machine

It scares the squares beneath their broken sphere
It engages all the changes that they fear
They’ve fought it for so long
But resistance makes it strong
It helps the blind to see
The deaf to hear

We like to see a comeback
So we cast ourselves behind
A vote against our interests
A grievance in our mind
We’re inching up to heaven
Where the wicked come to play
Progress is the purpose
It’s the way

We like it when we’re heard
So we raise our voices loud
In the friendly echo chamber
Of a complimentary crowd
We try to fight the impulse
But protests ricochet
Progress is the purpose
It’s the way
