lyrics

Ever unsurprised
In the face of disappointment
You've come to know so well
Like the wringing out of hands
Of so much useless guilt
Built up like dirt and dealt
Without discrimination
Onto whoever it comes crashing
A great unwashed still gasping
For air
Lungs failing under there

Too much now to ask
For an end to dissolution
For an easily unpacked
History of calm
And calculated decisions
Benevolent in vision
Lie down
Try not to think about it

A whole life misspent seeking
For a quiet life unyielding
A life you can't afford
Left spinning out of love
Estranged from other people
And kicking everyone
Below
