Scratch (Civilization Takes Two) Video (MV)

Every generation
Every man and woman
Lays a new foundation
On top of ruins

Ideas old and warn
Are discarded bones
Love is recreated
Out of the unknown

We scratch the start
We take love apart
Ignoring instructions
And rude interruptions

We scratch the start
Adding our parts
Making mistakes
Careful with hearts

Lying on your bed
You've gone to work again
I put on your dress
It's not the same

I drink from your cup
It lacks a certain punch
I kiss your shoes
They don't taste like you

I'm a slow child stubborn fool
Too proud to ask what to do

I scratch the start
Adding my parts
Making mistakes
Careful with hearts

I scratch the start
When you come around
Sometimes it's curiosity
That keeps us going on

There's no occasion
No photographic album
That captures this feeling
When we get it working

Outside the window
It's chaos below
In here it takes
Two for civilization

Every generation every man and woman
Scratches the start of something
Ideas old and worn are discarded bones
Love is recreated out of the unknown
