lyrics

Separating what you want and what you need
Count the seconds we arrive until we leave
I toss pennies in the fountain of your grief
I blow dust in your eyes to keep your arms out of reach

Separating how I hunt and how I feed
Crouching quiet in the bushes while you speak
I plant seeds in your head, watch them spring up to life
Harvest in the home, under pale moonlight

Can’t you see the plot devices, in the stories I tell to justify
My incessant need to compromise. Ill disappear if I self-actualize any further

Separating every word from what it means
You interpret my intentions as you please
I’ve been learning languages you don’t know
I’ve been hiding messages underneath of your nose

Separating superstitions from beliefs
We collectively, unconsciously agree
I was in the mirror stage, reading palms for my pay
Patterns in the tea that you threw in my face

When the sun shines down on the nothing new
You know I’m only trying to have a little fun with you
For lack of anything that I’d rather do
You know I’m only trying to have a little fun with you
