You’ve Always Been Here Songtext
von Algernon Cadwallader

You′re confused
The TV and the movies really did a number on you
You're confused
The TV and the news really did a number on you

And you′re ready, all too ready
Ready to accept that this is the way it's always been
And so it must not be broke
You're ready, all too ready
Ready to accept that this is the way it′s always been
And so it must not be broke

It′s been working so long
And we've made it this far
It′s been working so long
And we've made it this far


Oh, what a marvelous invention
That can capture your attention
And once it starts to lose you
It starts all over
Oh, what a marvelous invention
That can capture your attention
And once it starts to lose you
Well

They′ll remind you that you disagree with crime
And who will you call when it finds you?
Once the bruises start showing up, they're harder to hide
How will you protect your eyes and keep your kids safe?
From the truth, the system isn′t broken
It's working the way it's supposed to

You think you can turn it on and turn it off
You keep turning
You think you can turn it on and turn it off
But you keep on turning
You think you can turn it on and turn it off
You keep turning
You think you can turn it on and turn it off
You keep on turning

You think you can turn it on and turn it off
You keep turning
You think you can turn it on and turn it off
You keep on turning


Oh, what a marvelous invention
That can capture your attention
And once it starts to lose you
It starts all over
Oh, what a marvelous invention
That can capture your attention
And once they start to lose you

They′ll tell you that it′s just one bad apple
And no such thing as a free lunch
No matter how many times they prove themselves to be the bully
You'll stand behind them, so you won′t be the one who's hit
You won′t be the one whose bones get broken
