lyrics

// please pardon the wait we’ll soon have symmetry / ‘til then we’re cursing our addictions while contemplating the frictions that are few and far between / and now we never get to sleep / because our silhouettes are candle lit and I know that we can handle it we’re straining / it was always raining inside anyway / we’re high and praying that bears carry us away / now we’re thinking / we’re forced to the wall kept on the ball but we’re singing / i’ll still be the merchant who is bringing tectonics in a jar / but now we’re seeing the vista is obstructed by our being / and we can’t be the ones who are seen fleeing from everything we know / we would dream of our escape / telling different stories day to day / we said that we were visionaries always had to say where our final resting place will be / but here we are we’ve fallen short for the last time / we are taken by surprise as they see right through our disguise at the anonymous convention / the day’s upon us we just forgot to mention our last location to the world now we’re lost / but now we’re sinking / we’re forced to the wall kept on the ball but we’re singing / i’ll still be the merchant who is bringing tectonics in a jar / but now we’re seeing the vista is obstructed by our being / and we can’t be the ones who are seen fleeing from everything we know //
