Rules

1. You say you know love
But you are just reflecting words you hear
No iron in your veins
To give you any sense of pain or fear
It's just another lie
It's just another calculation
And when the power's out
We're just another old sensation.

This blood keeps me alive
But what is it that runs through you?
Electricity and wires
Dictating everything you do
You tell me that you hear me
And all your memories are real.
But how do I know
You don't just feel what you've been told to feel?

[Chorus:]
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
'Round and around
Two by two.

2. There's water in your eyes
And I know I'm the reason that its there
But still I don't feel bad
Because I know that you have more to spare
And just behind your eyes
Are switches that can turn back on
To clear away today
'Till all your memories are gone.

[Chorus:]
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
'Round and around
Two by two.

We run around the rules
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
We run around the rules
(we run around the rules)
'Round and around
Two by two
We run around the rules.
