lyrics

Down to the minute, outwardly fitted; firmly grounded in the infinite. Proudly a gimmick, now that it’s finished. The crowd will diminish and you can get right to business like mystics. (Alfred Lord Tennyson) If you’ve got beef, better hope its venison. Behind your reflection like medicine lies something deeper and much less innocent, so get rid of it. (Castaway) The game’s to be sold but you don’t have to pay. No, you don’t have to play, you’re better off on the side. It’s all for effect though often it slides into usefulness. What a youthful mess, trying to recognize life in diffusive death! One crucial breath in the form of wheeze. You know that he takes any form he pleases. Oh sure, he needs it but he won't say why…like feeling sun rays through blue grey sky. Who takes time? Better yet, who gives it? Ain't a lot left, the price is like wisdom. Never fall victim to the unwritten. This is not the moment unlived in.
