On some driven ship,
The morning commuter ride,
Everything is orange and bright.
Your invisible now,
And I know that it's hard to get used to.
The panoramic scene,
The landscape's grand design,
The moment overtakes your life.
In the silver morning sun
The worst is magnified
It makes you see the use of Christ.
The morning commuter ride,
Everything is orange and bright.
Your invisible now,
And I know that it's hard to get used to.
The panoramic scene,
The landscape's grand design,
The moment overtakes your life.
In the silver morning sun
The worst is magnified
It makes you see the use of Christ.

On some driven ship
The morning commuter ride
Everything is orange and bright
In reflection you can see
You're standing paralyzed
Your suspended disbelief has lied
You're invisible now
And I know that it's hard to get used to
Cause you're the last secret agent reporting back
But you're reporting back to nothing
The panoramic scene
The landscape's grand design
The moment overtakes your life
In the silver morning sun
The worst is magnified
It makes you see the use of Christ
"This song is about a kind of comfortable paranoia that I feel like everybody has a certain amount of. The character in the song imagines that he is a secret agent on his way to work in the distant future... In his own mind he is the most important man on the planet and bears the responsibility of saving mankind, or something like that. Anyway, so even though it is fake, it makes him feel important. He has a "mission." And one day while on this "imaginary" ride to work he imagines that the pressure of being the most important secret agent in the world has become too much, and he collapses into insanity right there as the morning sun beams through the window of this futuristic shuttle train... but the "realness" of the supposedly "imagined" insanity leaves our character stunned that he could so vividly envision his own psychological demise. He is surprised, and panics, and screams... and wonders, is insanity just imagination that can't find its way back to reality?"
Should be you're but the liner notes say otherwise. I love this song, have always had a strange attraction to it.
