"Barking At The Sea" lyrics

"Barking At The Sea"

Good to be in the heart of the beast

Carve my fate from alabaster
Blossoming is what I go after
All your unimportant tactics
Always end anticlimactic
Scrape yourself off the hot Los Angeles ground
If you're not paralyzed by the sights, be drowned by the sound

You can taste the most exciting spice of this life
But you will not remember if you're twisting the knife
If you're twisting the knife
How many miles do you get to go before this car can crash out
If you're twisting the knife

Looking for a place to sit
Hypocrite or half wit
Take it out my tongue, put it in a basket
I'd rather say nothing
Always have to translate
The sky sheds tears of oil
Onto the mummified human engines
That dry up from life's toil

You can taste the most exciting spice of this life
But you will not remember if you're twisting the knife
If you're twisting the knife
How many miles do you get to go before this car can crash out
If you're twisting the knife

A mirage and a pipe dream
You're in disbelief when they make an update to the grand scheme
A black rainbow, pot of mold at the end of it
Doesn't matter if your wit and your grit take you out of it
The future is moonlit
A dim path leads the way
If you've got the stomach to discover it
