Recorded it in my closet

lyrics

Live. See. Go. Be. Live. Whoa. See. Go. Cum.
Felicity never wore no frown on her face
Good fortune and martyrdom were here trades
She never once stopped smiling as those rocks flew at her
Well, the past is the present and the present in the future’s now
The Holy Bible, Qur’an, Torah, Ecclesiastes, Confucius, Tao
1,2,3,5,7,11 cut across a bathroom stall
We are all one and indivisible according to that old law
Hemingway caught a fish then he wrote a book
About the pleasantries of living, with a modern hook
While the misanthropist marched to his own silent banter
Weishaupt was a benevolent brandishing a mace
Bonafide philanthropist with a German name
His faith in the self
Lived beyond all of that slander
Well, the past is the present and the present is the future’s now
The Holy Bible, Qur’an, Torah, Ecclesiastes, Confucius, Tao
1,2,3,5,7,11 cut across a bathroom stall
We are all one and indivisible according to the law
Burn it up.
Pulled apart the draperies and the cavalcade
Pulled apart the clouds and everything was a point,
Vibrating at the speed of sound.
Speaking.
Then there was me. 4ft 3. Meek.
Holding a torn sheet which read Live, and burn it all down.
