If you thought that this lasts forever,
I've got news for you
because my heart is tied up and tired
of thinking for two.
If you could change just one thing about me,
would you say everything?
Because I might say everything,
but I don't mean everything
that I say.
I just mean most of the time
or probably part of the time
or surely for some of the time
I mean what all I say.
If you thought that this lasts forever,
well now you know the truth.

The Future
03:00
|

The future is as the future does,
and the future is all here because,
yeah, all the waves, all the waves surround me.
And no one's scared,
yeah, no one's scared,
and we all thought we were prepared
but no one knows it, no one knows it's true.
And we're all made of future stars
and we're all made of movie stars
and we all thought we knew.
But now I see that we can bleed.
We all paid it once or twice;
my insides fill with tiny mice.
They run around, they run around
and they eat.
No one's full, yeah, no one's full,
and with these arms I push and pull;
I lose my grip and I fall back to my feet.
We're all made of future stars
and we're all fucked like movie stars
and we all thought, and we all thought we grew.
So I sit and stay,
we can't run away.
We won't be home soon.
Looking out and in,
my brain starts to spin,
and so I see the end is true.

Simplest Machines
03:23
|
|||
I remember dark times,
but then you saved me bathed in moonlight.
You told me I was alright,
and I believed you.
I still believe you.
Decomposing in the daylight.
All my confidence had run dry,
and then you're there by my side
right when I needed you.
And I still need you; I think you need me too.
Move slow; don't belabor your own speed.
Let go; be the simplest machine.
Stop overcomplicating everything.
Let's decompose
into our molecules,
into the happiest
we'll ever choose.
