"Pioneers" lyrics - BLOC PARTY

If it can be broken then it can be fixed
If it can be fused then it can be split
It's all under control, it's all under control
It's all under control, it's all under control
If it can be lost then it can be won
If it can be touched then it can be turned
All you need is time, all you need is time
All you need is time, all you need is time
All you need is time

If it can be broken then it can be fixed
If it can be fused then it can be split
It's all under control, it's all under control
It's all under control, it's all under control
If it can be lost then it can be won
If it can be touched then it can be turned
All you need is time, all you need is time
All you need is time, all you need is

[Chorus:]
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?

A sense of purpose and a sense of skill
A sense of function but a disregard
We will not be the first, we will not be the first
We will not be the first, we will
We said we're going to conquer new frontiers
Go on, stick your bloody head in the jaws of the beast

[Chorus:]
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?
We promised the world we'd tame it
What were we hoping for?

[Bridge:]
Breathe in (Breathe out)
Breathe in (Breathe out)
Breathe in (Breathe out)
Breathe in
So here we are, reinventing the wheel
I'm shaking hands with a hurricane
It's a colour that I can't describe
It's a language I can't understand
Ambition tearing out the heart of you
Carving lines into you
Dripping down the sides of you

[Outro:]
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
We will not be the last
