lyrics

Due to circumstances beyond our control,
we now see all the cans that were kicked down the road.
we counted on & counted on & counted on what?
pay the toll later, how faustian of us.

with new advances we hope to hold the brush
to paint the canvas but we left Kansas in a rush
sound the horn sound the horn sound the horn loud
but the deaf proudful crowd can’t hear until we’re cowed in fear

& now death appears
with sour breath in tears
& our flesh is next to visit Vincent’s Ear
yo Linus how you livin mane?
i’m feeling insincere

those may be the first honest words I’ve heard you say this year
we create a mirror to nod in agreement
never looking past to face the fact our actions are indecent
play the matching game with our attachments & our grievance till every topic makes us into opposite extremists
choose a fool’s fate
you can ruminate, i’ma leave
all my deep thoughts are just weird points like possum teeth

I’ve gone to sleep, hung on my door
is a funeral wreath such fitting decor

there’s a war going on outside but inside too
clock the shit i do, i’ll still defy you

y2k2 I see the zero
turn it on feel it in your ghost
