Here we are, bending feet
 In the dark before dreamless sleep
 Cloaks that spot, that shiver, that breeze
 Throws you in the dark

 Happiness it won't last long
 And this child behind stores it all
 The failed man's curse and the cost
 Of nonchalance

 Thank you sly watchful gene
 plastic life up my sleeve
 If you've followed this far you've realized nothing

 Now your world is here
 Watch it disappear

 Abacus haunting me
 Abacus watching me
 Abacus haunting me
 Abacus watching me

 And it all plays out
 And it [bad word] around
 The message fades but the mess prevails
 You reckless thing leaving you in our hands

 Abacus haunting me
 Abacus watching me
 Abacus haunting me
 Abacus watching me

 All we have is this chance called memory
 [repeat 4x]
