Lyrics

[Verse 1] Name one thing that I got on you You ain't got on me It's not a score for sure, but you close to knowin' That that's what I keep When smokin' loud, I see the shroud And I let that shit sweep Down around what I'm sleepin on What I keep around like it's clean You tryin' callin' me when I'm three hours retired I let you know some things, but I still feel disquiet You got a job when the kindlings always fired You tamper with the smoke detector, now I'm glad you lying Etcetera, what's relevant is better love What I jettison is reticence, etcetera, etcetera We greedy with the medicine And the future just as menacing So I understand your decadence, etcetera, etcetera If making love is meddling My sediment unsettling Then metaphor's my element, etcetera, etcetera You suffer through my regimen My regiments is jealous, and You fuckin with me celibate, etcetera, etcetera [William Butler Yeats] [Bridge 1: Mark Naida] They burn everything I am And what little I have Oh, they burn everything I am Oh, etcetera, etcetera [Verse 2] We greedy with the medicine And the future just as menacing So I understand your decadence, etcetera, etcetera If making love is meddling My sediment unsettling Then metaphor's my element, etcetera, etcetera You suffer through my regimen My regiments is jealous and You fuckin with me celibate, etcetera, etcetera [Bridge 2: Mark Naida] They burn everything I am And what little I have They burn everything I have Etcetera, etcetera [Verse 3] Assimilate what I can't relate What I can't escape, I span the grate Try to celebrate what elevates Trying to grab up on its leg while it escalates You tryin' callin me when I'm six hours retired You know me better, you said it, I tried to kill it, I fed it My mind as wretched as reddit At the bottom of comments, you want a star or a comet Well, I'm neither, I'm sonically afraid to spill like a faucet You say I'm twisted, I lost it But that the way that we blossom, and I am Coppin' from prophets to say You gotta take losses, and you need that kenosis Cuz that's the way that we toss it So feel the breeze on your noses Invent a new name for roses And let the leaves of mimosas close on you: That's a world you gotta let go to respect, though, so I get your Affection and I accept it, but close those doors before I am Taking nasty exceptions in the crassest directions, so good night, now Night now, night, yeah, etcetera, what's relevant is better love Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
