lyrics

Let’s forget everything we know
We’ll feel dead, again
But thank you for remembering


Let’s not remember shit
Let everything slip in a lurking eternity’s grip and just be part of it
We’re carving our mark so far we’re living in bits and pieces of a hard bark
Hard starts for aardvarks in car parks
All we want are ants and here we are dancing for a star’s spark

I got these star parts inside of me
Crystalized irony
Trying to chase a side of me revolving at the same rate I’d retrieve a prophecy
Obviously I’m the body stopping me

I’m just tryna die happily
Barter back my panhandled wonder
Won’t live passively
I suppose if there’s something I’m establishing it’s finding out my value
Watching my vanity vanishing

I’m porous
Pass portraits of a perfect world to storage
Reporters scourge earth to unearth perfect contortions and I’m sick of pictures of the best curvature blur
It’s all a way to play on our crescendo of nerves


I long for the lack of a load
Lugging around bones like a mat so the stones won’t roll
Long for the lack of a loathsome toll from a doleful soul for the chance to grow
I long to go back home
Ride with my family
Stay close
And simply be there when you need to know I’m here for you
So you know


But for a second let’s forget everything we know
And we’ll feel dead again
But thank you for remembering everything we know
We'll feel dead again
