Gather around and feed off of worthless advice. I’ll find my way through shadows that bleed but don’t die. Dry all the oceans and we’ll blend with the salt. Lay down the law and then ignore protocol.
Gather your guns and aim toward the truth in the sky. Even with all our glory, we can’t be revived.
Cry me a river man, your life isn’t just. Watch me just smile away as I turn to dust.
