lyrics

Plenty of advice
Damn near drowning in your diatribe
I exit through the entrance
Did you just exist in the pictures?
Like an unspooling reel of a film of grieving sisters
But upon the mountain have you noticed?
A quiet pervades outside of your showbiz
Lift the rock- bugs will scatter
Like they're looking for God in a world where nothing matters

But I can't go on
I don't know how you're doing it
But you must be strong
Or an actor of some merit
I've just never belonged
There is nowhere I've ever fit in
Been on the outside
Fell down the downside
Over and over and over and over again

Where does it begin?
Damn near the ending
Don't spoil it through
So much joy in the pretending
You say you don't understand how I'm not famous
Like you can fuck your way to a heart that's free and painless
You clean the tub- scrub the dishes
There's no more than this though
Despite your fear of missing
I'll race you to Heaven on a horse made of rain
We'll just evaporate the way that we came

But I can't go on
I don't know how you're doing it
But you must be strong
Or an actor of some merit
I've just never belonged
There is nowhere I've ever fit in
Been on the outside
Fell down the downside
Over and over and over and over again

You say you want peace on Earth
Well, with whom does that begin?
You just ramble like a babbling brook, brother
Till the Earth takes you back again

But I can't go on
I don't know how you're doing it
But you must be strong
Or an actor of some merit
I've just never belonged
There is nowhere I've ever fit in
Been on the outside
Fell down the downside
Over and over and over and over again
