lyrics

Kendrick’s ghost will then and now
Resonate within my brow
Which furrows at the chaos and futility

Silver tongues on override
Drumbeats from a suicide
Rehearse it to the best of your ability

Dreamers die in real life
And those of us left behind
To sing our rhyme
Will abandon it in no time

So rally ‘round the blowout kit
Quick reward, convenient hit
No means to reconcile the songs we’ve broken

Painless in nostalgia’s coil
Slumbering verses in the foil
With words left hardly sung and never spoken

Survived by
Your broken sticks and practice tape

Make me an architect of sound
To spread my mortar all around
And though the structure is unsound
We’ll live in skyscrapers of ice
Paralyzed by our paradise
Dystopian and bored

Whatever makes you think you’re happy now, my friend?
