you know you see in symbols most of the time
these things in this head understood only in reverse
teach this head to speak backwards like you know what you want
red yellow green led tv screen
babble on incantation mockery becomes you
practice dotting your eyes and teaing your crosses when leprosy comes to town
what have you been thinking about lately
lately x4
(verse in french)
boredom causes incantation
dont know what you say most of the time
boredom causes incantation
(verse in mandarin)
you know you see in symbols most of the time
these things in this head understood only in reverse
teach this head to speak backwards like you know what you want
red yellow green led tv screen
babble on incantation mockery becomes you
practice dotting your eyes and teaing your crosses when leprosy comes to town x2
and as youre doubting
practice you become
mockery cantation

in this ember hot summer
of arizona's
they wondered why his feet
appeared to be melted
stuck to the hot ground below him
each and every passerby
found themselves at loss
for an explanation
unable to pull apart
his
motivations and intentions
each every passerby found themselves at loss
and he really doesnt know what hes doing x6
he doesnt know what he is doing x2

sit still x2
its harder than you thought
its quite funny
the way that i like to talk x4
but im not trusting my limbs to rise
or my swamp heart to beat enough blood around my body
there's so much an upset stomach can do
their permanence dwindles when not dissected
sit still x2
its harder than you thought

hangnails

|

the bite of detachment clings onto your hangnail hands
mother was a latchkey kid she brought me up with plans
so i'll check your irises though pupils are stuck wide
a night has passed over me
and into your mind you hide
these rubbing alcohol tears fall at watching seas rise
a severe condition lost with no subscription
and between this fiction
dormant pains create friction
to the basis of solid reality i flee
lacking pure connections i'm with no one to ground me
though my love for you grew
reciprocation knew
that now romantically a rift between us tore
eating at my fingertips all the time you kept score
a cavern devoid of words
ate up all the love you felt

i overthink and dig myself into holes
but in the end i know

the sun that breaks the thawing cold
i know x2
i've spent many years
that's it better to be fond of the dawn
the sun that breaks the thawing cold x2
