Amber Arcades Perpetuum Mobile Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hold on, we're not even close
It's just a matter of time before these knots unwind
Don't wait, there's nothing here to save
But it's been a magical ride, swimming against the tide

[Chorus]
I've seen the waves roll by
They drown the passing time
With open hands
All this time we wondered where it went

[Verse 2]
Try to erase the lines from your hands
I don't know what you've been told, don't wait for it to unfold
Perpetual, we're just appearing to fall
Imagine the things you'll become when you're friends with everyone

[Chorus] I've seen the waves roll by
They drown the passing time
With open hands
All this time we wondered where it went

[Bridge]
Don't sigh, the stakes aren't high
What's there to decide?
I won't put up a fight
I'll watch from the side

[Verse 3]
How long have we been out here?
The machine lingered on, didn't know we were gone
But hold on, we're not even close
It's just a matter of time before these knots unwind

[Chorus]
I've seen the waves roll by
They drown the passing time
With open hands
All this time we wondered where it went
