I think I'm drowning
asphyxiating
I wanna break the spell
that you've created

you're something beautiful
a contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

you will be
the death of me
yeah you will be
the death of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
but I'm restricted
I tried to give you up
but I'm addicted

now that you know I'm trapped
sense of elation
you'll never dream of breaking this fixation
you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this

houhouhou yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah
houhouhou yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah
houhouhou yeahyeah yeah yeah yeah

yeah you will suck the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
and our time is running out
you can't push it underground
we can't stop it screaming out

and how did it come to this

houhouhou yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah
houhouhou yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah
houhouhou yeahyeah yeah yeah yeah

The video depicts a number of military officials seated at a round table preforming actions simultaneously, moving to the beat of the song. There are also various clips of Muse standing and playing the song on the round table. It is partially based on Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.

Very groovy song. It's got a nice sound and melody, it's dancey, and it just plain old kicks ass. Definitely check this band out, if you haven't before.

I love the bass line in this song. Also, the sound of the lead singer's voice. For some reason, when he breathes in, I have a mini-orgasm or something. It's awesome, haha.

This song is a lot different from the rest of the album, isn't it? I don't think there are synthetic beats on the other songs, and if there are, they're much subtler. Good song. =]

This is a really good song and I like it, but the music video is the worst one I have ever seen. Besides the Korn one.

Haha I can tell how deprived some of you americans are, muse is better than any american band I've ever listened to, but hey, thats just an opinion. Neway, this song is amazing, fits the pattern of the rest of their songs; like nothing you've ever heard before.

I love everything about this song. It just ties together so well. I find the video isn't so great though. A song like this should have more than just dancing girls.

this song is as incredible as it was the very first time I heard it! One of the best songs that I have heard in the past five years. I never would have expected it, either. Surprises like this are a very good thing ...
