[Verse 1]
I've been looking through some pictures
That I found in my room
Time machines to take you back
To the places you once knew
And I remember all the things
That I used to care about
And I realised that they faded
They don't matter to me now
They are just moments in a lifetime which I never understand
Just a glance across the room
Cigarette burnin' on my hand
Just a second of a conversation on a Sunday afternoon
Or a kiss on a bridge
After it's been raining in June
And maybe I got older
And maybe I can't see
Or maybe I just realised that I want to be free

[Chorus]
So send my love to the system
Send my love to the system

[Verse 2]
Well playgrounds look like prisons the day after you leave school
And exes look like angels the day before they fall
You get caught up with the rosetin
In the glasses on the wall
And you remember what they look like
And know what they were called
And there was still a way you smile
Some autumn Monday morning
They will hate you
And they will rate you
And they will punish you without warning
And you search for signs of goodness
And you search for signs of life
Till you're standing on a stage
And you're blinded by the lights
And maybe I got scared
And gave in to the disease
Or maybe I just realised that I want to be free
