Verse 1
Em 
The harvest appeared less plentiful than last season,
I imagined sloppy seed handling,
evoked a stroke of tardy planting,
and the crops we'd have
harnessed mid -November,
but only brushed the blossom bracket,
then soon sacrificed lives
to high school jackets when the frost hit.
I sunk to find the warmth
beneath the mosses
With a plan to tunnel past
after the rains
and run their courses
But alas, the portraits of these
frostbite corpses
Tortured in the grass,
orbit this torrent
Supported by tall, glassy notches
And I'm asking you,
why suspice a fly hiding in strangers
When they know atop the fruitains,
I got five biters for acres
Now be gracious,
these minstrels turn to bullies
Psycho -civil by dissolving the candy
-coated image down to the pixels
The outbringing of self -styled
freedom brigade investors
In their studies connecting
one -hit -wonders
with Dutch connectors
And it's down beneath his side,
we sing along
So let's take it further down,
where them Dante decide which ring I'm on Nova,
the eldest took positions
in a fans march
Sparks playing a themed hawk
in the rain in my canteen
Though I'm like, I guess I got spare
splats for a couple of heads
During my famine, I never got broke,
you a friend
Well, equation of intrigue, yes,
yes, let me fence it for a
These tense lips need soakin'
before handouts token
Shut the fuck up, you
I'ma like Kabuki with a heart of dirt
Skull fuck crossbones,
hence my birthright
Jack must not sleep, must warn others,
trust blocks creep
where the dust storm hovers
I'm knackered for having time
for almost everything I want
Sometimes I take it all
and still can't feel this pitfall
in my gut
And I'm like must not sleep,
must warn others,
trust blocks creep
where the dust storm hovers
I'm trying to walk on top of sunshine
but it's ridiculous at times
That's why I'm pouring
with this water in the glory of
I is our advance,
fire ants to water beetles
Freemasons adjacent to pasting
on pins and needles
Pupil -turned -pedagogue,
benediction to my dream
G 
Bm 
In a billion -bottle rock,
F 
absorb the golden mezzanine
Em 
I   pluck the petals off
a classic blood rose one at a time
Gripping the stamen right,
invite the thorns
to dig up in my lifelines
A metaphor for nighttime,
many of the slight cost of exhaustion
To salute the moon above,
paradise lost and you're
a spectator
Stringent, itch my sacred inch,
shoveling coal into my
earthworm soul
Spurrow up through the dirt
with bloody digit
Lick my knuckles clean,
don't the corporate clusters
Holdin' hands round
the abode of the damned
Now what's your poison?
Starlight in a mesa with a nicotine chaser
Sip it clean, save it a taster,
sit and dream later
The eyelids pivot back upon the hinges
C 
20 miles across the glassy eyes
Em 
Window of wonders that passes by
Now I'm six foot four with a sixth floor
Walk up system and climb with no free time
In long storms and I
My daytime's awesome, yes sir
Okay sir, right away sir
Sir, do you mind if I breathe, sir?
Oh, you do?
Well, excuse me, sir
Fuck you, I breathe slow
I'm running with these fantastic
amalgams
Penny casket -bound careers to peers
Gunning with plastic albums
Security's the javelin, catch it
Labor, clocked in at 7 -6
And haven't clocked out ever since
Must not sleep, must warn others
Trust block street where
the dust storm hovers
I melt my habit now
for almost everything I want
Sometimes I take it all
and still can't feel this pitfall
in my gut
And it's like, must not sleep,
must warn others
Trust block street where
the dust storm hovers
I'm trying to walk on top of sunshine
But it's ridiculous at times
That's why I'm pouring
with this warning feeling
It's like must not sleep,
must want others
Trust blocks creep
where the dust storm hovers
I'm out my habitat
for almost everything I want
Sometimes I take it all
and still can't feel this pitfall
in my gut
And it's like must not sleep,
must want others
Trust blocks creep
where the dust storm hovers
I'm trying to walk on top of sunshine
But it's ridiculous at times
That's why I'm touring
with this warning
Bm 
Em 
Bm 
Feeling it's like death
Oh
