lyrics

See the world is what the world once was
And perhaps there’s less in it cause there’s now more of us
I was happy to read Nietzsche but I blinked and I missed him
So do you wanna be happy or just different?
Is it your excuse to explain being distant?
The wind up bird sings despite lacking existence
The two moons float without each other’s assistance
How are you a saint? Won’t you teach me Vincent?
Still on Murakami, got no time for the rest
And what is time anyways, divine intellect?
And we are all attributes of what God manifests
Existence is His essence who are we to protest?
And is it really ethical to say we’re all god?
At least it brings comfort knowing that we’re all flawed
But if I don’t believe in Him, then we’re all frauds?
Congrats on all your reasoning that I can’t applaud
I can’t blame the meditator asking what we are
I guess it goes to show how we’ve come so far
And nah I’m just kidding, still the same old bullshit
God out your equation, and we’ll see if it still sticks
If it’s in our nature to be strange tools
Then I hope to organize myself with pro tools
A template of ourselves comes in every mood
And the way I make art, no exception to the rule
A method to the madness in the madness that I craft
Cause the verse is Shakespearean but I’m the whole cast
I’ll stab you in the park for the sake of that bench
And ignoring regret, that's all I have left
So what did we learn after shooting the elephant
Oppression over territory still seems prevalent
We’re all equal right? That’s what we’ve all shown
Guess our father shouldn’t have let us in the forest on our own
Especially with that rifle man, He really should’ve known
He had so much faith likely greater than our own
Our death is inevitable, the damage irreparable
The writing on the wall was quite illegible
We’re all poor players on this poorly lit stage
So won’t you light a candle for a slightly brighter flame
My heart is too dark for any hopes of real change
And the light will burn out when they soon forget my name
So please forget my name, won’t you please forget my name
Please forget the fame, won’t you please ignore the game
Please adjust your aim, won’t you place the proper blame
Won’t you ever understand that there’s no truth to ascertain
So please forget my name, won’t you please forget my name? [x3]
But don’t forget me
