lyrics

I'll tell you what happened
and try to tell it plain
came up out of fashion
cut against the grain
heard all kinds of history
didn't know what to make
but I took it with me
to sort along the way

and the seed it soon took root in me
the need to be
something more than
crossed without a cause
to wind up lost
with no way back to where I'm from

I followed the action
and with it, came to find
the flaw of attraction
the blind leading the blind
and what I'm really thinking
nobody wants to hear
this city is sinking
and I am outta here

I just speak it like I see it
and you're free to deem it solipsistic
but you must admit your own shit
I'm just being realistic
words, for worse, they slur on ad absurdum
as the masses sing along
I must be on my way
to new mistakes
and that's why I'm so gone
