lirik lagu audible mainframe - curtain call
[hook]
i said i’m not a conqueror
i’m an explorer
soon as i said it
realized that i was lying
’cause i’m a carnivore
not quite a predator
but still my dear
there ain’t no sense
in even trying
to think that i could live
some sort of normal life
with a wife and kids
all up in the system
’cause this warfare
and you’re a dreamer
if you believe
that you won’t end up as a victim
[verse 1]
yo
we stood adjacent to the cooling tower
that spews the sour
radio action fools devour
the schools are scoured
for the deaf dumb and blind
they look for every
single empty vessel they can find
put lollipops roses rainbows
in their minds
and run ’em out on the -ssembly line
and quietly move it
out the factory
and ship it to me
in that pretty pink packaging
i must have told her
everything from a to zed
it was either over the top
or over her head
either way stand here
hand in hand
sometimes she is my woman
and i kind of am her man
but that’s not love
it’s just a weird amalgamation
of anything our mommies
and daddies would call relations
see we’re the product of
a crazy generation
bound from bed to bed
cause we’re super impatient

that spews the sour
radio action fools devour
the pools are scoured
for the deaf dumb and blind
they look for every
single empty vessel they can find
put lollipops roses rainbows
in their minds
and run them out on the -ssembly line
it’s your fault for not listening to me
it’s my fault for not listening to you
or is that just a dissident’s excuse
or is it just a shifting of a tune
neither one of us can hear
because our pitches (sp?)
i was cleaning up a mess
if i was (sp?) me and you
grab the center of the top
and i gripped it into two
so that’s it the show’s over
shoes are in the closet
clothes are all folded
no need to do the laundry
we’re never coming back
burn this place to the ground
the actors take a bow
and the curtain comes down
[hook]

to think that i could live
some sort of normal life
with our children
all up in the system
’cause this warfare
and i’m a soldier
i’ll be god d-mned
if i will end up as a victim
