Lyrics

[Verse 1: Illogic] I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes 'cause for every spoon that breaks, there's a spoon that bends And for every earth that quakes, there's a earth that stands See I place ply boards on the surface to surf the quicksands Before sinking into a worthless abyss where there's no kickstands Equator turns prime meridian and life takes a lean Where pleasure's replaced by pain and contentment is a dream I'm in a paddleboat, stranded out to sea because the paddle's broke Lost contact with the world when I disposed of my radio Tossed it in the deep blue, now I float aimlessly Strangely caught in a whirlpool, centrifugal force restraining me 'cause when god shuts a door, he cracks a window with a milestone While playing taps at a rapid tempo 'til the crowd's gone Wondering where my art would go but I was too scared to ask him I'm stuck in a room of beginning swimmers, drowning in sarcasm [Hook: Ill Poetic] I said the sky (sky) Bleed (bleed) Blood (blood) Red (red) The radio ain't living, y'all just listen to the undead So I walk into the sunset Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset Gimme one sec, homie, I ain't done yet Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset [Verse 2: Illogic] I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes As I tiptoe across egg shells with infant demeanor Stumbling every few sanity steps Left imprints in inkblots, stock is an official pen bleeder Guess it's all in the name of consequence reaction Labor ready fashion, crashing deadly medleys of windpipe sound and smashing Pumpkins with desperado guitar case clashing, dumping The monkey off my back into the rainforest and desecrating the landscape After scolding Goldilocks with Papa Bear's porridge Remove the village idiot for masquerading Misconstrued mic handles, I use phalange tips to light candles Holding vigils for subdued no-action mic-vandals Continuity crisscrossed by lifeline with nighttime Congruency can only be measured in timeline casing causing heart racing Faulty pacemaking cost me an arm and a leg [Hook: Ill Poetic] I said the sky (sky) Bleed (bleed) Blood (blood) Red (red) The radio ain't living, y'all just listen to the undead So I walk into the sunset Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset Gimme one sec, homie, I ain't done yet Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset [Verse 3: Illogic] I used to watch the sky bleed, rush to bandage the lashes Now I laugh at the lacerations and add a few gashes Lacing my blunt reality with carbon-based alchemy And you approach me like iron clad comrades read our name tags, see I relate to copulate like me and ovulate had different moms but same dads I knew I shouldn't've responded to the atlas replacement newspaper ad I wish I could subtract a few cats from the globe I hold on my back Galaxy orbits reflect a racetrack and I'm sick of doing laps You see it's no pain, no gain, no name, no fame, I'm going insane Waiting for passengers to climb aboard my thought-train Left to comb my locks, checked the shoebox for a spare soul Before splashing the tin man and taking a match to the scarecrow I'm an Emerald City outcast with flying monkey demeanor Took back routes 'cause Yellow Brick Road splashed paint on my sneakers [Hook: Ill Poetic] I said the sky (sky) Bleed (bleed) Blood (blood) Red (red) The radio ain't living, y'all just listen to the undead So I walk into the sunset Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset Gimme one sec, homie, I ain't done yet Take your shades off then watch me walk into the sunset
