We Know About the Reality

[Verse 1]
Out of the dark room
Eyes shrink from the light
His mind can’t function in this world

Alone with his one love
Where everything seems right
Around the machine his fingers curled

[Chorus]
‘Cause this old girl, she’ll run for a long time
And this old man’s way past his prime
Oooh, one might just say we’re running out of time
But that would be laughable
That would be laughable

[Verse 2}
They ask him where he’s been
They just don’t understand
Exactly what he’s searching for

This state that he’s in
Requires great demand
It calls too loudly to ignore

[Chorus 2]
‘Cause this old girl, she’ll run for a long time
And this old man’s way past his prime
Well, one might just say we’re running out of time
But that would be laughable
That would be laughable
