Repeat After Me Songtext
von Burnside Project

Cracks in the sky
A new barometer passes by
As we grow cold and gravity
Has us in a chokehold

I guess you heard
Simon isn′t saying anything anymore
Until the overture is telling William's secrets
On the floor of the exchange

An aura, a strange blip on the radar
Unperceived at twilight
We conform our hands
To stop the swarm of overachievers
Every one of us in the room

Repeat after me
Repeat after me

But if you guessed the letter D
Which is none of the above
You′ve passed the test with flying colors
But can colors really fly?


I've seen atrocities against garbage bags
But I'm the one you have to deal with
Don′t act like you don′t know me
I put Bolivia on the map
While the 29th birds create a hundred dirges
Celebrating all the heroes
The fearless in their graves

The sandwich bag was full of candy corn
But not where it belongs
But I suppose it's just the same
It′s the same way that you left it

Repeat after me
Repeat after me

I'm not trying to make a statement
On those who are set to rule
But something tells me that they came
From the shallow end of the gene pool

Like Santiago wrapped in sargasso weed
It pleases me to develop that knack
For knowing what′s about to happen next
As I consult my virtual texts

I move far from Yokahoma
Past the haunted house
And deep into space
It reminds me of his battle cry


Repeat after me
Repeat after me
Repeat after me
Repeat after me
