What's Really Happening

David Bowie · Hours... [1999]

Grown inside a plastic box

Micro thoughts and safety locks

Hearts become outdated clocks

Ticking in your mind



What's really happening?

what tore us apart?

What's really happening?

What's really happening?

what tore us apart?

What's really happening?



Now it's time to close our eyes

Now it's time to say goodbye

Now it's time to face the lie

That we'd never cry



All the clouds are made of glass

And they're slowly sinking

Falling like the shattered past

Were we built to last?
