lyrics

The actor doubled as his freedom
Invited mystics from afar
He laced the lemon tea with teardrops
And took after drinking in his car

Alone and vented are his moments
An active freelance connoisseur
The kind where crystals melt from service
And now go building walls of fur

The real pressures are in language
As spoken by our presidents
And former colleagues from the airshow
Where smoke donations clog the vents

Contained but frequenter than ever
The specimen goes up in flames
And residents in linen whisper
’it must be the judge who rigged the game’

So lowlight levels mark our kinship
To voices young enough to beg
When lack material means ego,
A visit to the phantoms bed

All motion is a cult of some kind
I know cause I’ve told people ’no’
Iconic loot collapsed in rivers
That paint the tourists calico

No mercy is the voice of reason
I learned that staring at a cup
Of holy water sold by Nestle
Before I grinned and drank it up

I’m looking for the perfect nightclub
You take a train to it
Let it dance you introspectively
