about

A little ditty about how the aforementioned avoidant escapism fucks ya up in the long run

lyrics

LYRICS:

As implied in the last song:
We fall for the temporary lulls
of motion with sickness that turn to a secondary stall.
Unconscious collusion;
illusion of bloodstains on the wall
That go undetected; deflected and all, but

That’s not what I am here for.
Trust me, that’s not what I’m here for.
It’s only meant to be a mea culpa.
Meta-C4 and cetaphil, gin-and-soda
with a twist of any citrus fruit
you can get in your sweaty mitts.

My god, is the first third the best third?
Or did the fable lie?
I lied in the last song a bunch if you haven’t realized.
Consider the panorama harder to define.
Anyway, that’s it.
I thank you, my friend, for swinging by.

As if! You had! A choice!
Invited! But! Without! A choice!

I knew your plans.
Knew you had a fairly blank agenda.
As blank as the return address of the sender.

I’ll always remember that part where you said
the don’ts do not always match up with the did.
The part where the values the seeker-of-truth held
hold taut at first ’til they gotta hold looser;
don’t reflect the passion you had in your youth,
so don’t go beating yourself up.
