lyrics

Can't you just behave?
Can't you just be plain?

Can't you just
be what they expect of you?

Can't you just
be what the project on you?

'Cuz you are making it difficult for me

Why would I use my eyes to see?
Why would I use my mind to perceive?
Why would I use my brain to believe
Something different
Than what I already see, oh

We're all balanced in a giant but a tiny house
On the crescent moon edge
Of a sandy moon cliff;
The only reason we haven't tipped it yet
Is we're all constantly,
We're all constantly, constantly

Running like we're foolish headless bodies
All in different directions, yes we're
Running like we're foolish headless bodies
All in different directions,

So let's
Just freeze
In place.
Take notice of our own mistakes.
Let's look through the salty waves right down
To the bottom of the sea- the bottom of the sea.

Shooting holes through your own hot air balloon
Can't even do the task set before you, and we'll say:

Let's bust all the windows out, let's
Crawl out from under the floorboards;
Most will say- let's just fester until
We explode
Because-

Soon we will be falling
To the bottom of the sea.
