[00:34.660] Son you'll have to grow thicker skin, before you turn amphibian
[00:39.250] Then you'll have to grow some gills
[00:43.190] But if you want to breathe oxygen,
[00:45.060] You are going to have to live on land
[00:47.240] And maybe I am surprised you don't
[00:51.080]
[00:51.390] Hey cat with nervous eyes,
[00:53.310] Maybe you can't decide how to lose you eighth and last
[00:59.470] Born in different gears with symbiotic tears
[01:03.560] Maybe that's the kind you chose
[01:06.840]
[01:07.340] Well I'm used to seeing the sun not rise
[01:11.490] It gave me pause before a shallow dive
[01:15.070] Though I surfaced on the rain soaked rocks
[01:19.710] I'm a genius when the blood won't stop
[01:23.720] And now because of crushing guilt
[01:27.700] And now because I'm lying still
[01:30.800] You don't believe in social resurgence
[01:35.710] Or giving in to giving in
[01:39.320]
[01:56.050] This girl I knew from fire,
[01:58.070] She'd gotten some piano wire
[02:00.200] Hung herself from a right tree branch
[02:04.140] This stick it bent right down,
[02:06.060] But her feet never hit the ground
[02:08.220] Until her legs were laid to rest
[02:12.160] Her orphan suicide,
[02:14.280] Maybe you can tell me why living is the accident
[02:20.290] And no single event is impossible to prevent when the odds are not your ken
[02:27.640]
[03:00.870] Hey blue head her off,
[03:02.890] And ask her for her thoughts comparing us to lichen growth
[03:08.900] It's taken twenty years,
[03:10.870] We're covered ear to ear beginning on the head to toe
[03:16.930] And philodendron bloom,
[03:18.950] Your pictures in my room balanced on an old pine shelf
[03:25.280] Someday I will need every flower seed to complete my collective growth
[03:32.140]
[03:33.140] Well I'm used to seeing the sun not rise
[03:37.290] It gave me pause before a shallow dive
[03:40.940] Though I surfaced on the rain soaked rocks
[03:45.180] I'm a genius when the blood won't stop
[03:49.410] And now because of crushing guilt
[03:53.260] And now because I'm lying still
[03:56.380] You don't believe in social resurgence
[04:01.190] Or giving in to giving in
