lyrics

understand I don’t care if I meet you/ and you don’t care if we meet/ its just conversation/ we’re not so compatible/ but at least we know/ and we don’t care/ syntax lies/ no difference in art and life/ just what we say/ and the order the words go/ it’s time, we’ve needed an aggravist/ one that wouldn’t make us laugh/ and has severed how we used to speak/ concepts of language around his waist/ but more dimensionally versed/ he has severed how we used to speak/ call it backwards/overlapping/ ultramodern/ “more slowly”/ they mistook it/ for religion/ but the truth unfolds/ we de-vo/ without knowing/ same language equals same story/ the new version/ is confusing/ sharp tongue/ glass blood/ grammar its comedic/ we’re corrected/we need a/ stoplight division to the next calendar...year/ understand it’s just conversation/ but it eliminates how I really feel.
