Paroles de Seconds Before The Floor Drops Out

It's about time to break apart a series of events.
Maybe we can somehow put together the pieces.
We Started out with the same fire I'd assume every failing system's flames.
So let's pretend we've stated all knee-jerk reactions whilst knee deep in shit.
So where did it go wrong?
How did we get there to here?
Let's play toe tag the totalitarian.
Somewhere along the lines, the same lines we've walked and drawn, we colored the aspirations outside of the same lines.
We are what we despise, even if it gets us in the end, we'll take it to our graves.
But in the meantime, hypodermic needles indeed won’t suffice, pharmaceuticals prolong and dell results, lobotomies don’t come with a baby sitter.
Maybe group shock therapy. Maybe we could throw a public lynching, throw insults with the rotten fruit.
And seconds before the floor drops out, we’d all give you the world’s biggest group hug.
I’d die laughing to the grave.
I never would have thought we would have moved this far apart.
It’s beyond me. It’s beyond deserts, it’s beyond all ocean floors.
