lyrics

When I'm ready to throw it away
you hold the knife steady
you temp and push; call me out

Conscious minds never create anything but
pretentious lines. With no impact or real meaning
You're too sane for sincerity, so don't ever question mine

Then it's all clear I don't belong here.
But what have I done to change the outcome

Because I'll be around today
to eat shit I'll smile and say
pretension stays vainly still

Conscious minds never create anything but
pretentious lines. With no impact or real meaning.
You've been locked out for all this time
then the world gets heavier
under that weight is an honestly you'll never find

We are human locks
changing at will
making time for the rational/creative mind
all the while pretension stays vainly still

You're too sane for sincerity, so don't ever question mine

Then it's all clear I don't belong here but what have I done to change the outcome?
