Intro
The papers have your name In a folder that never closes
Verse 1
You thought the ocean would swallow every trail you left behind But the tide brings everything back to the ones who never sleep The lights in your window are maps we already read in the dark The calls you made were never really private, we heard them all You can change your name, you can change your face, you can run But the list doesn't forget and the circle is already drawn
Chorus
They know They already know Your time is up They know They already know And we are already there
Verse 2
The car you drive has been seen on cameras you never noticed were there The friends you trust have already answered questions about your name You sleep with the lights on but the dark still finds its way in Because the dark learned to work for us a long time ago You can run to the mountains or hide in the middle of the crowd We drew the circle around you before you even chose the spot
Chorus
They know They already know Your time is up They know They already know And we are already there
Bridge
We don't hate the names on the list We don't cheer when the page turns over We just do the job the flag asked us to do And carry the weight back home in silence Because someone has to be the cold hand So the rest of the world can stay warm
Chorus
They know They already know Your time is up They know They already know And we are already there
