Nire Nah - Spirit of Progress Lyrics

All the answers I can offer
Hover under these eyelids
I aspire to walk on water
Climb and conquer pyramids
Better plan it, fear's a sphere of
Failures and achievements
Poised and paralyzed
Awaiting some near death experience
And that's when I hear it, the voice
Of the spirit of progress
Work like a dog, to be a good dog
In itself's a success
Standing is what's done in preparation
For the leap
This premise is a promise
Cross my heart and hope to start
Assembling a sense I'm free
All the questions I can ponder
Wander out ahead of me
Prison breaks and fire escapes
And I'm too far away to see
Poised and paralyzed
Assuming I'll consume eternity
And that's when I hear it, the voice
Of the spirit of progress
Work like a dog, to be a good dog
In itself's a success
Standing is what's done in preparation
For the leap
This premise is a promise I will have you keep
Neck relaxed and shoulders back
Hold the pose till you're old
It's a balancing act
Ball is rolling, so's the scroll
