I wish that we could wake and see
The city sky before the sun's up
It's early but you're here with me
On the other end of my camera
Across the ocean looking back
Two thousand miles to my window
Feels like we're living in the past
But with our best to follow

Walk ourselves home by LED
But we're still sleeping with the light on
Slip into electricity
Where our roads finally cross
We go forever and a day
With all the messages we're sending
But we have never found a way
To find where this all began

When the walls crumble around
And all our dreams are falling down
Pick up our pieces that we found
And build ourselves back again
As I try to let you in
We will be emptied from within
The seasons change, we shed our skin
Until we're almost human
I know a place for you and me
Where we can hide out when it gets cold
Plug in our own reality
And re-write the stories we're told
We lock ourselves inside a screen
Stay up all night until the dawn hits
Lose our hearts in the space between
The glass and our fingertips

When the walls crumble around
And build ourselves back again
Pick up our pieces that we found
Until we're almost human
As I try to let you in
And build ourselves back again
The seasons change, we shed our skin
Until we're almost human
