SoundFonic - 37 Stops Including Red Lights Lyrics

The morning started as it usually does
Sleepy heads on a big red bus
Newspaper headlines screaming at fools
Raindrops collecting in neat little pools
And it's 37 stops including red lights
Until the factory gates come into sight
Traffic jams, a lot of white vans
Is this the world that I hold in my hands?
I don't understand
I didn't see this plan
It must belong to another man
Someone who's let things get quite out of hand
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get this world away from me
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get me off my knees
Well I wish this world the very best of luck
I'm jumping off before I'm stuck
The day drags on in a grey, endless blur
Machines hum and clatter, but no one stirs
Faces blank, eyes glazed and cold
Stories untold, dreams put on hold
And it's 10 hours long, clock never lies
Under fluorescent skies, time crawls and flies
Workers march, no end in sight
Is this the life I chose to fight?
I don't understand
How I fit in this plan?
I want to break free, be my own man
But I'm caught in the grind, slipping through my hands
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get this world away from me
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get me off my knees
Well I wish this world the very best of luck
I'm jumping off before I'm stuck
The evening falls with a sigh of relief
Homeward bound, but there's no peace
TV screens, the same old news
Wars and lies, tangled truths
And it's 37 channels of nothing but noise
Drowning out the thoughts I avoid
The morning started as it usually does
Sleepy heads on a big red bus
Newspaper headlines screaming at fools
Raindrops collecting in neat little pools
And it's 37 stops including red lights
Until the factory gates come into sight
Traffic jams, a lot of white vans
Is this the world that I hold in my hands?
I don't understand
I didn't see this plan
It must belong to another man
Someone who's let things get quite out of hand
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get this world away from me
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get me off my knees
Well I wish this world the very best of luck
I'm jumping off before I'm stuck
The day drags on in a grey, endless blur
Machines hum and clatter, but no one stirs
Faces blank, eyes glazed and cold
Stories untold, dreams put on hold
And it's 10 hours long, clock never lies
Under fluorescent skies, time crawls and flies
Workers march, no end in sight
Is this the life I chose to fight?
I don't understand
How I fit in this plan?
I want to break free, be my own man
But I'm caught in the grind, slipping through my hands
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get this world away from me
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get me off my knees
Well I wish this world the very best of luck
I'm jumping off before I'm stuck
The day drags on in a grey, endless blur
Machines hum and clatter, but no one stirs
Faces blank, eyes glazed and cold
Stories untold, dreams put on hold
And it's 10 hours long, clock never lies
Under fluorescent skies, time crawls and flies
Workers march, no end in sight
Is this the life I chose to fight?
I don't understand
How I fit in this plan?
I want to break free, be my own man
But I'm caught in the grind, slipping through my hands
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get this world away from me
Will someone, will someone, someone please
Get me off my knees
Well I wish this world the very best of luck
I'm jumping off before I'm stuck
The evening falls with a sigh of relief
Homeward bound, but there's no peace
TV screens, the same old news
Wars and lies, tangled truths
And it's 37 channels of nothing but noise
Drowning out the thoughts I avoid
