A Life in the Corn Syrup Paroles

Poison water, poison air

In the window of a passing bus
I see my reflection
Staring back at myself
Is just like watching television
People pass me by, staring blankly forward
Their looks keep me company
As their number streaks, I keep swimming

All I have are steel wheels to carry me onward
They wind about this earth
Like a snake we'll grind the gears
In the center of the yard is a pair of gods
Progress and technology
The enablers but not the cause

As the wheels stop
As the fortress wall has dropped
I will plunge my knife Fucking no one!

Every fucking night I grind my teeth
The world spins faster and faster
How I wish that it would stop
In the turning by the morning
I watch them spray retch
Swells that carpet everywhere
Poison water, poison air
