took a walk this morning
passed everyone i met
they left the right lane for me
how considerate!
there's no way they'd known me
just a dumb American
if you drop out without warning
miss everyone except
the silhouette before the mirror
it shouldn't take a 24-hour flight
to recognize a mirror
(yarra! yarra! we all dance together)
trying our best, to the beast, to the one-on-one
(yarra! yarra! can't i get better?)
only the blind and inspired can stare at the sun
(yarra! yarra! we all dance together)
trying our best, to the beast, to the one-on-one
(yarra! yarra! can't i get better?)
only the blind can stand you

we shouldn't have to do this
keep holding onto newness
'youth,' or what you call it, but truth is
we're proving that we deserve this
a common thought to me is useless
'cuz i can never know if we mean it
or if we're all just trendy defeatists
i can call an arms race a wholesale
throw Jesus Christ and all his friends in a cocktail
my POWER, POWER to the chainmail
the things we need to penetrate won't go back there
oh, but what a time to divide us!
another day, another fucker to prime us
for understanding where we are only hides us
from ritual suicide
it'll find us one way or another
it's in the habits in the veins of our brothers
it never stopped, it never needed to cover
its ass, like us, to survive
i might be out of line to forget her
but what can i be but a voyeur?
there's nothing wrong with wanting to die
but i could never stop hot water

the new summer's taking longer than i expected
but no matter
i'm just another cloud rolling in
just another tailspin off the road i was running
taking cover isn't proof that you don't matter
sometimes there's too much to do
all sides are calling you
let's come up with a chorus
something to rally behind
nothing rattles the mind like a dying bird in a cage on your mantle
the weed here is worse than i expected
(i wasn't getting high anyway)
the other option is
forgetting my parlor tricks that don't impress
let's come up with a chorus
something to rally behind
i gotta be of a kind, or a rental
this isn't worth my time without someone to waste it
