Cops killing people in the streets
Doesn’t matter who’s in the big seat
I passed a vagrant on my way
Said have you seen the news today
I can not stand to watch the news
I can not stand it
Deadly sickness going round
Don’t look to me like it’s going down
Don’t think we’ll ever be the same
Don’t know exactly who’s to blame
(Solo)
I cannot stand to watch the news
But I can’t help but pick and choose
What’s to lose?

What yr seeing on the streets ain't about one tragedy
Nor a few bad apples among our police
It's the breaking point after centuries of denying Black Americans their dignity.
If you happen to be white, accept you're immune to systems of oppression built to protect you
I hate to be that guy spouting Voltaire quote
But, fuck, it feels like we're nearing the end of our rope, so;
The sovereign's called a tyrant who knows no laws but his caprice
And if that doesn't ring a bell, note that POTUS deployed troops to suppress us protesting police after another unarmed black man died yelling "I can't breathe."
By justice a king brings stability
But one who makes extractions will ruin it
And here's another proverb just so we're sure
A ruler lacking empathy's an oppressor.
Spending lives like poker chips, passing fatal lies as party rhetoric, talk about fake news
Where's the proof they're keeping us safe and not just keeping us in our place, we're still slaves to our next paycheck while no one is above the law but our cops and our president, whom we've had to watch debase our founding documents, this isn't freedom, this isn't democracy, this isn't any sentient creator's idea of what life on earth should be.
Christ was brown before we painted him white, 60 years passed and still MLK's right, the forces we trusted to serve and protect are taking their loads off on our very necks.
Tardy, yeah, but not too late to make a stand for human dignity
No more silence no more fuel to feed the machines of our cruel history
The sovereign's called a tyrant who knows no laws but his caprice
No is until we all are free
It's about fucking time we reclaim the police.

Slept in my sleep
Ate while I eat your memory
And I learned to stare
Leaned to miss out on while I'm there
Meant what I've read
And read what you said out loud to them
Can I undo this part
Make it not count or let's restart
Could it be my body
Ten miles away
Should've thought this out first
My nights wide open again
It's me now and only me from here
The last laugh with no one else to share it with
It's me now and only me from here
The white owl, alone against the black of the night

Let's take a measure
To think about land
Whose is it
Where we stand
Take a measure
To know nothing's right
Wasn't nothing before
That boat of white
Came crashing
All proud infestation
Diseased
By a long standing tradition
Of
Oppression smuggling
its history in clothes
blanket, food, pale god,
Towering deception
Deserving of honor and grace and so much pain unpaid
Let's leave this place
Some holy book in hand, traded false figures / left stolen, hillock tirade, ...
all godly, all fatherly, and white, man.

There is this new type of mud
Consumers can not get enough
Line around blocks just to touch
They want it to replace their blood
In a century this won’t look like much
Skeletons clutching fistfuls of mud
It’s Easy Mud
It’s Easy Mud
It’s Easy Mud
It’s easy
There is this new type of drug
But we were already stuffed
We are not having more fun
We didn’t need it all
I liked my old blood
I liked the old grass and old mud
But they’re always choking on new stuff
New placements for ads on the products
In a century this won’t look like much
Skeletons clutching fistfuls of mud
But it makes life easy
And I don’t try I just get by
I just scrape by on barely
In a century this won’t look like much
Skeletons clutching fistfuls of mud
But it makes life easy
It’s Easy Mud

You tied your shoes too tight
I can see the thoughts flicker
Beneath your eyes
and they pass by us like clouds
You can't stomp out a roach
I already forgot your face
I carved a wing into your shoulder blade
and i know you still feel pain
I hope you tell me about it
another day
I don't sleep at night anymore
Bang my head against the wall
into the deep hours
Trying to choose a path
Turn out the light
Wish i didn't have a body

Give up
Everything that you wanted
You've already got it
You've already got it
It's true
Everyone knows
Where it all goes
In the end
Nice try
But when you die
There's no more time
There's no more time
Tell me
What's the point in believing
When everyone is deceiving
They're already leaving
Give up
Everything that you wanted
You've already got it
You've already got it
It's true
Everyone knows
Where it all goes
In the end
Nice try
But when you die
There's no more time
There's no more time

When you wake up, I’ll be on the moon
I’ve been waiting here a whole lifetime to love you.
Ooh —
You make life oh so sweet
Darlin’ please: Marry me
I think you’re crazy
I think you’ve lost your mind
I think you’re frickin brilliant
and you’re one of a kind
Ooh —
You make life but a dream
Darlin’ please: Marry me
(Some bup bup bupbups)
Ooh —
You make life oh so sweet
Baby please: Marry me

Sky is burning, downtown whirring
Chill is setting in
One way streets where no one meets
To drink until they spin

I just want to rock n roll
But I don't have the skill
I just want to murder you
But I don't know how to kill
Andromeda comes by to eat
Some food with us today
And if our fridge is empty she will
Eat the Milky Way
Eat the Milky Way
Andromeda's a carnivore
A mongrel queen
A cosmic whore
Her plate is always full but she wants
More and more and more
More and more and more and
More and more and more
Crunching on the cosmonauts and
Choking on their blood clots
Gave her really gaseous farts
Expels the contents of our hearts
And nothingness is all there is
Nothingness is all there is
Andromeda leans in
For a kiss
