Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Verse 2]
You insult me in my home, you're forgiven this time
Things go well, your eyes dilate, you shake, and I'm high
Look in my eyes deep and watch the clouds change with time
Twenty hours won't print my picture milk carton size
Carton size
Carton size
Carton size
[Verse 3]
Call me up, congratulations ain't the real why
There's no pressures besides brilliance, let's say by day nine
Endless corporate ignorance lets me control time, by the way
By the way
By the way
By the way
[Verse 4]
Once again you see an in, discolored skin gives you away
So afraid, you kindly gurgle out a date for me
[Verse 5]
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Verse 6]
Now the body of one soul I adore, wants to die
You have always told me you'd not live past 25
I say stay long enough to repay all who cause strife
[Verse 7]
Once again you see an in, discolored skin gives you away
So afraid, you kindly gurgle out a date for me
[Verse 8]
Once again you see an in, discolored skin gives you away
So afraid, you kindly gurgle out a date for me
[Verse 9]
Oh yeah
[Verse 10]
I bear true and an existing witness to this barrel of monkeys
A self proclaimed immoral success, perfected by each whereof
Individually deadly and equally so
And spread about the surrendered troops, for even thousands of miles
Will not tear apart their communication, or the lack thereof
Vultures, liars, thieves, each proclaim their innocence
In no suggestion or rhyme
Your weapon is contained in the wrecking
Of keeping the desired effect
The breaking of the spirit thwarts the whole being
[Verse 11]
Your weapon is guilt
Your weapon is guilt
Your weapon is guilt
Guilt
