lyrics

You’ve heard it all before.
The silhouettes are calling,
pointing which the way to go.
Breakdown of ritual.

The roots run more than deep
alluding to the weak,
from weeks to years ago.
Nations to chromosomes.

Untangle them all
and give them a song.
Rearrange the letters
and give them a story.
Break them apart
and give them a song.
Rearrange the letters
and give them a story,
a story to distort me.

Scribble outside of the lines.
You’ll get pulled in.
Swim against nickel brine.
You’ll get pulled in.
If you question design.
You’ll get pulled in.

Change the way the sun sets.
They’ll be coming.
Decipher the language.
They’ll be coming.

Create something instead
They’ll be coming.
Try to read between bets.
They’ll be coming.
Force your thoughts on your guests.
They’ll be coming.
Seething under your breath.
They’ll be coming.
Best you personal best.
They’ll be coming.
I can’t breathe in this stress.
They are coming.
I can’t breathe in this mess
They are coming.
I can't trace silhouettes.
They are coming.
Pretend they’re only dead.
They are coming.
Pretend I’m only resting.
They are coming.
