Time is Running Out by Muse

Lyrics:
I think I'm drowning,
Asphyxiated,
I wanna break this 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,
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,
Our time is running out,
You can't push it underground,
You can't stop it screaming out.
I wanted freedom,
Bound and restricted,
I tried to give you up,
But I'm addicted.
Now that you know I'm trapped sense of elation,
You'd 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,
Our time is running out!
You can't push it underground,
You can't stop it screaming out,
How did it come to this?
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
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
Ooooohh
Song Meaning:
The video depicts a number of military officials seated at a round table performing actions simultaneously, moving to the beat of the song, as Muse play the song on the table, with the officials apparently oblivious to Muse's presence. Eventually, the officers begin to start dancing on the table, seeming to go insane. They eventually end up crawling.
