lyrics

My temperment’s sure tempermental
Capacity rage but I carry on
Heard there’s an asteroid with potential
Of fallin’ in our path
Fingers crossin’ behind my back
Theses cosplay kids seem so provincial
Armed to the teeth for a petty war
I’m empathetic to one impulse
Of lying in the road
After pullin’ on a push door
With a low and heavy sun
All the colors start to run
Into peach, pink, tangerine, and plum
Yet the blues have never won
Due to beauty sneakin’ up
And cuttin’ the cuffs of anhedonia

I am exhausted by the rallying cry for caution
Let’s dime it out just a little more often
I need my palm read, a clairvoyant or a prophet
A vision of good comin’ down the line
For my daughters in their lives
Or tell ‘em a good lie

I put two fingers to my temple
In the shape of the gun but I laugh it off
‘Cause life’s become absurdly simple
Love all and pack it up
Throw a party when we’re gone
May we always remain civil
If our love were to ever warp
Into something gnarled, mean, or sinful
An unnecessary chord
All dissonant and misinformed

With a low and heavy sun
All the colors start to run
Into peach, pink, tangerine, and plum
Yet the blues have never won
Due to beauty sneakin’ up
And cuttin’ the cuffs of anhedonia

I am exhausted by the rallying cry for caution
Let’s dime it out just a little more often
I need my palm read, a clairvoyant or a prophet
A vision of good comin’ down the line
For my daughters in their lives
Or tell ‘em a good lie
