Lyrics

Dumb and numb
From young and wired
All I do is wait
Pushy and hungry for more
Curtis, do you know what our lives are for now?
That it's been three weeks and no one talks about you anymore?
All I do is wait
We are a sea of fragility
And so ready to surf the sink
'Til the sponges are flooded and we're all forced underneath
All I do is wait
I'm so good at condescending
It's so good for my weak ego
Can't get past what comes naturally to me
It comes natural to use
There's a fairness in the city
There's a new smell in the air
Satisfaction promised
But the sentiment ends there
All the Capricorn reactions
In the river up to my knees
Hundred little baby fishes
With baby bottle mouths to feed
And crooners crawl themselves like whores
Across the barroom floor
My mother used to hold me
I hold her now that she's old
After all it's just a notion
Nothing really in the end
'Til a good one leaves the continent
You just can't write words to send
So I guess everything's just perfect
It's all true, what you've been told
To go and tell your good friends that you
You just got sold
