Shroud of Despondency
Album • 2020
I had a little bird Its name was Enza I opened the window And in flew Enza You are the upper I am the lower We are teeth Bread lines or panicked bread buying Nothing in between Stay away or physically comfort me Not interested in a mean You are the upper I am the lower We are teeth You are the upper I am the lower We are teeth Persistence is decadence Eventual pestilence Fear, an accelerant that threatens endurance Sustainability was always a dream Manifesting as multiple schemes Hope, a recurring theme in the cycles of entropy When should I panic?(in the cycles of entropy) When should I shoot?(in the cycles of entropy) What should I horde?(in the cycles of entropy) And when should I loot? Won't catch it in the woods, but you can catch something else A will to quarantine, true social distancing We have a dog, but not a leash We panic upon its release Our loving mutt's not what we think We live where it sharpens its teeth We have a pig, it eats anything It floods our pen with its offspring We think they're cute, we should rethink Our lives now controlled by their stink Sometimes it just takes a plague(x4) We have a bird, we've clipped its wings It stays in its cage and never sings Depends on us for the food we bring Unaware it'd die if set free Sometimes it just takes a plague(x4) I wear the mask(x5) It scares the children Where each child wears a different mask I wear the mask(x8) I am the upper You are the lower We are teeth I am the upper You are the lower We are teeth I had a little bird Its name was Enza I opened the window And in flew Enza

What happens when all the comfort goes away? Instinct reappears It's never as pretty as the powerful say But they keep their mirrors Pass on their fears The saddest thing in life is wasted talent Go inside, stay inside Let everything eat you and see where it gets you The best things in life become the worst They are separate, unique, and diverse Invisible fire consumes the earth And all talent burns cursed What happens when all the comfort goes away? Instinct reappears It's never as pretty as the powerful say But they keep their mirrors Pass on their fears The saddest thing in life is wasted talent Go inside, stay inside Let everything eat you and see where it gets you The best things in life become the worst They are separate, unique, and diverse Invisible fire consumes the earth And all talent burns cursed I keep my distance as a way of life I've never thought twice I keep my distance as a way of life I've never ever thought twice Too smart to trust becomes too smart not to Much faster than you want it to Find a maniac or two to look after you And eventually take your family Better to become the maniac Put the i in panic Better to become the maniac Put the i in panic Put the i in panic When should I panic? When should I shoot? What should I horde? When should I loot? When should I panic? When should I shoot? What should I horde? When should I loot? I wear the mask Too smart to trust becomes too smart not to Much faster than you want it to Too smart to trust becomes too smart not to Much faster than you want it to So many lists in so many minds Who should contract and die So many answers to be heard About the meaninglessness of justice A virus has no list

A virus has no list A virus has no list A virus has no list No list Fallout's always en vogue Under it all a god-like rogue Men scamper about with affirming smiles Holding knives while they collogue Paranoia is all the rage The delusional offer you their sage The wise men need not possess shame Where the animals prefer their cage Paranoid-it might be my disguise, my problem Then again, you have made stories about Sodom And everything works out in your lovely stories You are the upper I am the lower You are the upper I am the lower We are teeth You are the upper I am the lower You are the upper I am the lower We are teeth Just little yellow teeth Bite Chew your food Bite Chew your food Chew your food We have a dog, but not a leash We panic upon its release Loving mutt is not what we think We live where it sharpens its teeth Where it sharpens its teeth Its little yellow teeth We have a dog, but not a leash We panic upon its release Our loving mutt's not what we think We live where it sharpens its teeth Where it sharpens its teeth Its little yellow teeth Told of a dream An economy The brightest of stars Just look at ours Madonna shines bright Collecting the stories Viral lore Retelling the stories Viral lore Viral lore Viral lore I wear the mask Do you wear the mask? Persistence is decadence Eventual pestilence Fear, an accelerant that threatens endurance Endurance Won't catch it in the woods, but you can catch something else A will to quarantine, true social distancing
