Back to the Cave

Lyrics
You've got your suckers like an octopus And they can't see behind the camouflage Should I compare you to an octopus? Just stacks of handouts to the entourage We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave There's a fire, there's a fire It's coming And it's pushing past the women And children Such a thrum, such a thrum Of flies humming On the beach by a sea Of sevens There's a storm, there's a storm It's rising There's no time, there's no place For idles Such a mess, such a mess That's throbbing All that's born is a meaningless spiral You've got your tentacles all over the place Its just a bad dream, since we weren't awake Cutting up your beak just to spite your face Time to run, time to make an escape We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave We're moving forward slowly But falling backwards faster So watch us spiral as we tumble from grace We're running out of punchlines Addicted to disaster So watch us crawl We're crawling back to the cave
