lyrics

Ways
Best defined opaque
Another tenet of a speech I gave
Only ever in a bid
Do play along?
Well consider it done

I desire to move on
Redesign all my wants
Notwithstanding any perversity
Note that you are now beholden to me

Abate, the very thing you’ll become
Gauge, when at a glance I came alone

Brandish the tongs
Leatherette, Leatherette
Feasting upon it, dilate
Vessel to an islet shall be worn
A vessel islet to an should be

I know better than to validate my wants

Staged, let your faith interrupt
Wretch to be better interrupt my thoughts
Another sign of things to come
Reconsider your tone.
