Surfing the Warm Industry

I wanna run from the apathy

From the questioning tones and eyes

That just won't come off

And get a job in an industry

Where smiles not required

The complaints are always the same

'Cause, baby, you must be so fed up with the boy

That keeps telling you how much good he's gonna do

When all of it's happening 'round here

Is happening in here

And nothing gets out there except for the truth

It's up to you

'Cause I'm absolutely numb

It's up to you

'Cause I'm absolutely numb

Go

I fell adrift on the summer surf

And I paddled ahead of the fear that I'd fall behind

I took drinks from the glitter Smurfs

And the company dads who never stood by and they cried

'Cause no one dies and nobody ever will

There's only space for one

And surely he gets killed

When the engine ceases out

You might call it existential crisis

Or simply call it the bravery of emptiness

It's up to you

'Cause I'm absolutely numb

It's up to you

'Cause I'm absolutely numb

Go
