Maximo Park - Our Velocity Lyrics
I'm not a man
I'm a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books I never read
And then I tell you some more about me!
Beneath the concrete there's a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fear
My words are just hunches
I'm not sure what they mean
You're asking for commitment when I'm somewhere in between
Never, never try to gauge temperature when you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
You didn't leave a scar
A stream of numbers hit a screen and you're expected to know what they mean
Throughout the conflict I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I've seen
Are you willing to resist for people you've never met?
The devil's wheel revolves but it needs to be reset
Never, never try to gauge temperature when you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Please tell me, is it cold where you are this time of year?
You didn't leave a scar
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
I watched a film to change my feelings
I'm strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive, I wouldn't have to be so sensitive
If everyone became so sensitive, perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive
Love is a lie
Which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
Which means I've been lying too
Love is a lie
Which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
Never, never try to gauge temperature when you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity

I listen to this in my car and my dad goes crazy love this song like if u love it...
I heard this years ago in American Eagle Outfitters.
*Ferrari: The Race Experience* , anyone?
I used to think that the bit that goes "I'm not a man I'm a machine, shizel me down until I am clean" was "I'm not a man I'm a machine, shes only down until I am clean" when I heard it a few times from the first time I heard that song.
X1.5 is the true speed of Our Velocity
This song is so energizing me and my where racing by foot it played on my phone into my air pods and it pumped me up with energy guys
Forgot how great these guys were.
DAMN LOOK AT ALL THESE MAXIMOS
Why is the piano player more hyped than the drummer?
✨💜
Love this song!
2.07 best bit by far
I'm not a man, I'm a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books I never read
And then I'll tell you some more about me
Beneath the concrete there's a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fear
manners are just hunches
I'm not sure what they mean
You're asking for commitment
When I'm somewhere inbetween
Never never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Is it cold where you are this time of the year?
You didn't leave a scar
A stream of numbers hit a screen
And you're expected to know what they mean
Throughout the conflict, I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I've seen
Are you willing to resist
The people you've never met?
The devil's wheel revolves
But it needs to be reset
Never never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year?
You didn't leave a scar
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
I watched a film to change my feelings
Strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive
I wouldn't have to be so sensitive
If everyone became so sensitive
Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
Never never try to guage temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity

Love the chorus, so fast paced!
I am that geezers Bowler Hat. Love is a lie which means I've been lied to 😂
Just alone, with these *THOTS*
My first thought was "wow, this band has a lot more members than I expected."
my god, you're absolutely right !!
Nirvana - Downer
How could you NOT like them....?????
I'm literally just here because I heard this song as a little kid, never knew what it was, just heard it again on Absolute radio and tried to find it on YouTube.
Otro pinche pedo esta rola
Makes me want to slit my wrists, it's destroying my soul.
no one is stopping you
Fuck the pianist is crazy !😂
Watch this on .75 for the fire version
popscene by blur, rewritten
First to say first
not kidding, i enjoyed this song
I "played" this song on Guitar Hero - Modern Hits
3:20 va par un meme.
his voice is like brendon urie's at this onee
Bide panic at the disco grubunda birçok kişi ayrıldı spencer smith'de ayrılınca tamamen ptad!'dan nefret etmeye başladım.
kesinlikle katılıyorum patd! konusunda. maximo park o popülerliğe ulaşmadı ama hayırlı olan bu demek ki iyi ki ulaşmamış ☺
ama sesleri çok benziyor.
Benim için maxïmo park çok özel ben hiç bir grup veya sanatçıyla kıyaslamak istemiyorum...Evet maxïmo park'ta popüler olsaydı belki onlarda kendi çizgisinden çıkardı:)))
*Brendon
A British sounding Brendon Urie
Where are the PGR comments?
Right here
Here's another one. Just because
Right here playing it now
just ripping off movement by LCD Soundsystem in a silly hat
discovered this band in 2015,let this be soundtrack of my youth
Image is too clear, I'm going back to the old one
Khe zhydo
proper brilliant song :-)
Paullllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alan!!!!!!!!!!
This band makes me like synth and keys in bands more
Esta canción es una de mis favoritas, y el video está padre.
Now really... I need this video in 1080p
one of the greatest songs i´ve ever shot in my ears....that rocks
I absolutely LOVE this song, it's brilliant - should have had a much better video to go with it though!
How you dare VEVO to put a video from THAT years ago ONLY at 480p! What a disrespect!
Finally a version without the glitchy beginning!
Yes, finally, a MAXIMOPARKVEVO!
It'll never lose its charme. Neither Paul, dunc, tom, archis or Lukas, nor this video and the goddamn fantastic quality. Thank you SO much
finally a hd version! ty!
keyboard player is owning the shit out of this vid...hes having a great time.
I remember this one from audition (the game) xD love it!
Love this song
WHAT a song!
Cook video, and awesome song!
