lyrics

Something simple
Trickles in through
Data on demand

Sacred texts and
Jealous exes
Throbbing in your hand
A meditation on the vainest thought you know

Fear and loathing
Beer and clothing
Shoot it up your veins

Hallelujah
What’s it to you?
Give that man the reins

A revelation from the palest god you know

You think you’ve made it but you’re lost, boys
You never run out of ways to take it from us
That doesn’t scare me at all
You’re just a number they call

Wall or border
Law and order
In a kevlar vest

Sound and picture
How’d it miss you?
Strapped across your chest

A recitation of the darkest deeds you own

Heavy mist and
Revving pistons
On your way back home

Murder disco
Monte Cristo
We’re serving payback cold

A visitation on the calmest street you know well

You think you’ve made it but you’re lost, boys
You never run out of ways to take it from us
That doesn’t scare me at all
You’re just a number they call

You think you’ve made it but you’re lost, boys
You never run out of ways to stay above us
That doesn’t scare me at all
Good dogs will run when they’re called

/

These are the nights when I’m a man outrun
When I’m gnawing at my skin
Things I would die if I could have undone
Seem to start each day again
Is there a song to set the captive free
Or to dull her waking pain?
Am I somebody that I should be?
Can you make it plain?

Please, it’s a long way out if you go it on your own
Please, know you won’t get out if you’re going
