Verb Lyrics

Always in arrest

Hanging out and staring at the test
As the hours swoop you by
I know you

Frozen in a state you never reach
As the comfort weighs you down

Look at the things you haven't done

Are you blinded by your sun
Don't you wanna be a verb not a noun

Look at the things you haven't seen
Are you blocked in by your screen
Don't you wanna be a verb, be a verb not a noun

Hollow in your hole

Standing in defiance of the flow
As the river goes around

I know you

You made up your mind long ago
Now you wear it like a crown
Look at the things you haven't done

Are you blinded by your sun
Don't you wanna be a verb not a noun

Look at the things you haven't seen

Are you blocked in by your screen
Don't you wanna be a verb, be a verb not a noun
