Lyrics

There was a time too tired for rapid fire
Cages spilling guts out into the streets
Spinal love and solving puzzles
Trying to breathe some life into the heat
May a stone dissolve your puzzles
Or your legend for a second while it fills your past
Say you're sorry for absorbing
Say you're mad because you couldn't make it last
And suddenly I was unconscious
Trying to pull something from it
I looked at God and said "Well
I'm just the meaning from your words"
You sing like a million boring overleveled songs
Music laced by the comb is incomplete
The notes are all fractured, the bars all decayed
A car that serenades to a lover's leap
May a smile convert your figure to a float
Or a river drowning fingerprints to snow
You say you swim because the sinking requires too much thought
You say you breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go
You say you breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go
There were frightened wooden doors squalling out
Ways of passage leading to the morning without dreams
Nonstop fiction, all those telltale lies
Cut the words out to hear the spaces in between
Spirits usher stark naked back to cave
Frightless envoys scarred by human rage
Fleeting keys creak to dazzle in slogan lock
And suddenly I was unconscious
Trying to pull something from it
I looked at God and said "Well
I'm just the meaning from your words"
You say you swim because the sinking requires too much thought
You say you breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go
You say you breathe because in leaving you have nowhere else to go
