lyrics

Sometimes rational people can't get rid of their fleas
And they scratch until they bleed
Possessed by ideology - they roll their eyes infinitely
And protect it as their personal identity

You stamp yourself with a branding iron and say
"I proooomise, I'm this thing!" and so you are
The self-fulfilling prophecy to fuel a herd mentality
Another crime against your own humanity, you know it is.

On the backburner it sizzled
So used to that sizzle sound
Catches fire when you forget it
By then it's already done
Guess we were already done
Guess we were already done
Guess we were already done
Now crows are starting to come....

If you only hear the loudest voices know
They're usually the drunk ones, yeah they're drunk
On whatever they're supposed to drink
So they think what they're supposed to think
Ideologues don't have your remedy
Don't let them drive you anywhere.

Don't let them drive you.

Let's get back on top
From the bottom with the teardrops
And all the darker blues
That the waves washed up with someone's cement shoes
Weighted down by what they stepped into
Trust your balance to those cement shoes and they won't do a a thing but sink you.

And get back on top
From the bottom with the teardrops
And all the darker blues
The waves washed up with someone's cement shoes
