lyrics

You inherit the land, then you inherit the fall
And we’re about to find out that there was no land at all
Take a deep breath before you step outside
The whole world was ending while we were here getting high
There’s no putting to order all the creative horrors
When you overturn your life and see its size
I’m counting millions and billions for international villains
I’m just happy they allow me to survive

It’s only temporary
Nothing but a day jaunt
Highway turns into an endless shopping mall
The only permanence is parking lots
Walking a fine line
Staying on the timeline

I don’t know who else lived here but it feels like I’m down
On my knees packing my things and leaving their house
It’ll be like I never lived here just a few days from now
I know that these walls won’t whisper when I’m not around

Leave just a hint of me
Two inches of graffiti
Thin magic markings, I was here
Every other fact eventually will disappear
So I will sleep easy
It’s the crime of the century
Back to the basement
I am complacent
Don’t let me hate it but
Don’t make me fake it

It’s only temporary
Circles round the old haunts
In the dirt I find a plastic crystal ball
Yeah I gazed the future on that spot
Walking a fine line
Staying on the timeline
