Lyric

Riding on the trash heap, preaching “all is crap”

Counterfeits keep spilling out, like I’d ever care about that

Swinging a NICE divine right just to spit abuse

My brain’s a perfect fortress, no room for a single excuse

Hey, hey, don’t you hear the telescreen calling your name?

Pick it up, world’s waiting

If it hurts, if you’re breaking, let it show on your face

Can’t do even that? Then you’re garbage, lie there and stay

Come on now

Make the lowest bloom, let it grow somehow

No slow love allowed

A stained heart crushed to the ground

Crushed by lies, betrayed by touch

This love collapsed when it lost too much

Go on, raise it up, disgrace and all

Bloom the worst you’ve ever known

Dramatic little history books we cut and paste

All our panicked twists and turns just pointed guns at our face

Why? We dim the truth, play fools like kings of the earth

Sit down, stand up, imitate, every word we claim has no worth

If bombs for words are what you call “best conversation”

Hang your necks high, and call it salvation

Come on now

Boil the unjust till it screams out loud

Hands stained with doubt

Self-hate and exile weigh you down

Crushed by lies, betrayed by touch

This love collapsed when it lost too much

Go on, raise it up, disgrace and all

Bloom the worst you’ve ever known

So take this love and sing it raw

Laugh now

Laugh now

Laugh now

Laugh now

Laugh now laugh now

Laugh laugh laugh laugh

Laugh laugh laugh laugh

Blinded by a trick, “Just get high and live”

Big mouths selling cheap thrills, you buying what they give?

Look behind, yesterday’s you bares its fangs tonight

Swimming through the gutter, gasping just to stay alive

Yesterday jumps forward when we never realize

Riding on the trash heap, preaching “all is crap”

Counterfeits keep spilling out, like I’d ever care about that

Swinging a NICE divine right just to spit abuse

My brain’s a perfect fortress, no room for a single excuse

I hate those words “uncool and sly”

I just don’t wanna be that guy

Hiding, hiding, joking loud

Please forgive me now

Crushed by lies, betrayed by touch

This love collapsed when it lost too much

Go on, raise it up, disgrace and all

Bloom the worst you’ve ever known

Crushed again, but show your thorns

No time to heal what’s bruised and torn

A stained heart crushed into dust

Sing this sorrow, let it burst

So take this pain

And let it bloom
