lyrics

I find myself bored in your graces
like monuments to a state disgraced
and a past better off dead

interpretive allure, no eye to the stone
a past better off dead

what would I conclude, given the time alone
a past better off dead

a spiteful pull, and tempered serene
or just another dream

a catered importance, to those in discordance
a fearful stutter
with arms open wide
what have you left me to decide
or was my faith implied (contrived)

a means to displacing apathy
exchanging what we know
the pageantry of the high road
a travelled path with a blindfold
I guess we ought to know

what's been done
in failure of

a context laid out in front of me
exchanging what we've known
the pageantry of the high road
a travelled path with a blindfold
i guess we ought to know

the morning of, the come down
