con·fir·ma·tion bi·as
of all men equal in their place
living a life i've assumed
of all men equal will resume
once women rule and take a place
resting tidily upon mans face
to have forgotten the deal so long
of all men equal in their place
am i real or am i food or am i rock
the walls are incredibly mine
is it saying or is it sign
in the routine lies the chase
dive head first into the dirt and die
of all men equal in their place
a voice is like a bad idea
it won't stop changing over time
it hangs upon your neck burning through your chest
wearing the heavy heart to lay the crown to rest
the great raving loony of its time
of all men equal in their place
the monarch and the milkweed
i thought i was to blame and i was to blame
but nobody noticed, nobody notices the little things, i was fading
and i rised, and i raised, in the blind i would say i will smile all the time anyways
they put me to shame, i was ashamed
i was straightened and so frustrated, but in my dreams i was laughing
and i rised, and i raised, in the blind i would say i will smile all the time anyways
the body always pays when shadows peak on sunny days
bodies smashing, two gods basking, there's no little things once we mated
and i rised, and i raised, in the blind i would say i will smile all the time anyways
i took to task their ways but words never again seen shape
i almost sold it, i was so distracted by the little scream that almost made it
and i rised, and i raised, in the blind i would say i will smile all the time anyways
bygone style
you've come to your senses like you're taking stock of all the finer points to your beauty
if you have to worry then it's all a crock, knocking off pleasures like it's your duty
this facade is a placard with your name embossed, for its own relief it is assuring
and from a nation for which there is no song
and im humming along in my bygone style
with a semantic eye i'll wear a blindfold, enter your terms i'm so agreeable
while i step away to check on the colour of my mood ring
i guess i'm feeling fine in my bygone style
i've learned my lessons so i could take on the cost of buying drinks for all the right people
but now i drink alone wearing my grim reaper costume, plotting at home in my bygone style
and we hide our true feelings so we can take on the loss of finding love by hating all the right people
you don't want to ruin your one big shot
and i'm just puttering along in my bygone style
now, validation you dumb muse, give me the gift i've lost of how much it rains in the movies
cause i can't remember the reasons for our love
now that i'm back on my bygone style
here goes the knees and the back
i'm a lit pipe w/ all my might
out of sight i'm uptight
come wound down come down now
ready, calm and steady, make a choice and start betting all of it
dance in the confetti, oh you'll start forgetting most of it
i'm a wet rag, slowly drying paint
always a slight, a stupid fight
come wound down come down now
ready, calm and steady, make a choice and start betting all of it
dance in the confetti, oh you'll start forgetting most of it
set fire to the moon
don't stop me if you've heard this one, if you want just leave
it's flight every time, the fight's on repeat
it's no thrill going in for the kill
set fire to the moon now that the sun is gone
and why aren't you here, your voice disappeared
it feels real cause we tell ourselves it feels real
we show our colours at night in black and white
we're smoke machines with gas masks on tripping
it plays real cause it pulls feels
set fire to the moon just for something to do
a little collusion for two, rambling til the darkness sees us through
all my spiels are long reels
no matter how hard i try nothing is gonna save me (why lie?)
but you smell like fruits peels and i smells like last meals
let this old blip bleep one last time, a final paradigm
everything is too soon, set fire to the moon
eternally sealed by the real deal
girl
as icy as i'm told my love is pure as gold and all i love is you girl
you know it to be true, all my love's for you, it's more than i can chew girl
anyways, it seems i'm full of joy and pleased just like the way ya do girl
although i always say i'd love you either way, do you love me too girl
trench warfare
ya gone buckwild before you had to cry
the first to speak's the first to be eaten alive
so suck all the fuckin luck into your breath
as if we ever the chance to catch our own depth
you and me in these trenches fighting for the kindness between us
all we know is love and war as we slowly build our defenses
the certain hell of wit and wisdom refines the impact of quoting our own demise
we're spellbound to grind down this picture that's found us untying our knots to see how
we're wound
you and me in these trenches fighting for the kindness between us
all we know is love and war as we slowly build our defenses
a love i'd build and burn bridges for now's just another pastiche chore
when it matters most there's one kind of joke as if there's a time whenever we won't
you and me in these trenches fighting for the kindness between us
all we know is love and war as we slowly build our defenses
the great director
we loved to take our time take our time take our time reminiscing life in love in the wild
never missing out convinced that we were viable, channeling every time that we laughed
and cried
we stood under the lights and we thought it was so bright
but i rewrote all your lines changing baby's to maybe's
and all the yours to mines, once crazy was amazing
but it was a fucking waste of time expanding on the mood
to change the goddamn light to keep fucking with the zoom
for the outcome to feel right we needed a new attitude
replacing all the wrongs with right, the bad gets what's coming to him
and the darkness must feel light as if there's nothing to it
we stood under the lights and we thought it was so bright
all the goddamn while trying to keep it all in scope
as all the stuntmen die and the stars they just can't cope
and the pyrotechnics fly, the make-up starts to flake
and the actor's camera shy, give me a fucking break
we loved to take our time take our time take our time reminiscing life in love in the wild
never missing out convinced that we were viable, channeling every time that we laughed
and cried
we stood under the light and we thought it was so bright
butterflies
oh my heavy hanging head is low, it's the highest fruit i have hanging
all the endings i'm forgetting woah, all ending where i'm stoned
in all matters i am all alone, am i delighted? maybe
always ever never ending but i don't know, of my wish the wildest was love
i am still by us in love
i am still biased to love
in rebirth or in silence it's retold, of my wish the wildest was love
tell your friends and tell the world it's overblown, i am still by us in love
into this empty world ya now behold, i am still biased to love
turn your back on the sunset baby and let it roll, of my wish the wildest was love
i am still by us in love
i am still biased to love
i am still by us in love
slow motions
and sometimes you need a little love little love a little love a little love
cause maybe time it leaves you a little lost a little lost a little lost the lesser off
and this time you can't just shake it off shake it off shake it off
i don't know why this time maybe not maybe not maybe not
i asked the dignified ladies will we won't we
i asked the weather complete me, wide eyed freely
i asked to ball and chain me, i'm done complaining
i asked what makes him happy when he gets lucky
and sometimes you need a little love little love little love
cause maybe time has left you a little lost little lost the lesser off
and this time you can't just shake it off shake it off shake it off
i don't know why this time maybe not maybe not maybe not
don't
i can't look you in the eye i know that you've been crying all day
i came in from the rain to say i don't think that i am here to stay
every time i try to talk you pick apart my lines and move on
past the point of blame, i'm opening the lines to make lanes
it's the sun shining in your eyes, on fire all the time
i'm afraid to knock on your door, you don't like me anymore
you answered anyway to say everything will be ok
i thought it was a crime to waste my time and have no shame
i've found places to hide and ways to say i don't know what to say
it's the sun shining in your eyes, on fire all the time
it's the sun shining in your eyes, on fire all the time
we compare the flames that made us cry and also made us new
all of which remains the same if soon we don't decide to choose
whether we want to blame ourselves or not for keeping lit the flames
the wanton barren plains of existential meaningless to-do
it's the sun shining in your eyes, on fire all the time
it's the sun shining in your eyes, on fire all the time
i've got a lot of time to waste i guess i'll face it alone
you think i have to wait, stop awhile, and have no play
but every time i try to do a little good you say don't
women is the energy of the world
keep yourself tongue tied, how you missed her crying all the time
keep yourself hog tied, how you fucked her, it's all in your mind
take her for a long drive, ol romanticizer, fear in both of your eyes
save her for the last line, a reminder, a prayer for every kind
women is the energy of the world
