I'm trying not to blink while staring at the sun
It's not something I'd recommend
It's not for anyone with common sense
Optimistic?
A characteristic that I'll never be, that isn't me
The end won't seem as frightening if I'm too blind to se
And when will you go?
I can only keep this up for so long
And where will you go?
Don't answer, I don't think I wanna know
No I don't.

Stand aside little dummy,
All the weight has gone to your head.
You're the only one holding on when the bomb surrounds us.
It's too late for everybody,
All the wells have dried into greed,
And we're left wondering in this world will we ever know peace?
Can't relate, to the things you say.
So many lies I don't know why, you try and deceive?
Just concentrate, on seeing that you get out,
Leave us to rest, we're already too there.
Put aside all the money,
Tolerance is born out of pride.
We may never know why we live, struggle and survive.
Actions are what are needed.
Separating lies from the truth.
All of our mistakes can be forgiven and reduced.
Can't relate, to the things you say.
So many lies I don't know why, you try and deceive?
Just concentrate, on seeing that you get out,
Leave us to rest, we're already too there.
Stand aside little dummy,
All the weight has gone to your head.
You're the only one holding on when the bomb surrounds us.
Left wondering why we've gone so far into madness.
There's thorns and there's holes around us.
There's thorns and there's holes around us.
Look around and see the madness,
'Cause there's thorns and there's holes around us.

Phil tried to kill himself in 1953
A footnote life dismissed as lesser history
To laugh, to think, to feel!
Why are these things excluded from the plan?
Phil's not a coward, he just couldn't live his life as the Ro-Man
Phil tried to kill himself but he never followed through
He died thirty years ago but I still can't stand when they say
"So bad it's good"
No, that does not compute.
RECALCULATE!!

Criswell Predicts

It sounds like springtime
But I can't crack a smile
Cuz I barely remember what it's like
To carry on conversations
Without preordained destinations
Tag-teaming anecdotes
I said it all before
I'd have said it all again, predictable
Whatever happened to, do what you wanna do
It's useless noise, could someone please just
Tell me a story I haven't heard
Criswell predicted, future unearned
Sincerity trumps irony, but cynics rule the world
Well they don't have much time
I've heard that one before
A hundred billion times
And I can't pretend it means a thing to me
The words align, but something's wrong
And I can't quite put my finger on it
Tell me a story I haven't heard
Criswell predicted, future unearned

Hey Mister! Toronto, Ontario
Fast and loud and short* and also fast. And loud, too.
*as in song length, not stature. We are fairly tall.
