Horizon Has Been Defeated Lyrics

The horizon has been defeated 

by the pirates of the new age 

alien casinos 

well maybe it's just time to say 

things can go bad 

and make you want to run away 

but as we grow older 

the troubles just seems to stay 

future complications

in the strings between the cans 

but no prints can come from fingers 

if machines become our hands 

and then our feet become the wheels 

and then the wheels become the cars 

and then the rigs begin to drill 

until the drilling goes too far 

things can go bad 

and make you want to run away 

but as we grow older 

the horizon begins to fade away 

thingamajigsaw puzzled

anger don't you step too close

because people are lonely and only

animals with fancy shoes

hallelujah zig zag nothing

misery it's on the loose

because people are lonely and only

animals with too many tools 

that can build all the junk that we sell

sometimes it makes you want to yell

things can go bad 

and make you want to run away 

but as we grow older 

the horizon begins to fade away
