lyrics

we only value being young because the pigs think we are scum
 left to complain “what have they done?” manipulate ad nauseam
our tastes arranged by years of useless, profusive trivialities   

the endless spray of babbled sound coagulates to clot, confound 
please escape their pressured pound, even thoughts our senses drown each moment racing, evasive and elusive  

so cradle yourself in a palm 
panting waves, the currents crazed 
introspection run around 
this is where you used to drown  

  I spent my currency of youth seeking existential truth 
I imply impaired abuse, I’ve imbibed beyond excuse 
but life in vain ain’t painless without meaning

  life is always painful, baby

  you hesitate, the moments run - and tesselate to tie your tongue 
please embrace it when it comes, I’m amazed when I succumb 
the moments wholly force me to surrender  

oh, used to drown
