歌词

[00:11.23] I've always hated these long good-bye poems
[00:13.95] If I saw the face of death, it's cause I kissed her with my eyes open
[00:17.10] Lipstick on my closed funeral casket
[00:19.20] Asking "what for" like a roman numeral math quiz
[00:22.16] It's enigmatic, the way a soul can hang-glide
[00:24.87] In a world of diamonds but remain a pearl like Shanghai
[00:27.67] I aim jewels at the heads of angels
[00:30.05] To examine when the gold in their halos became Fool's
[00:32.87] They played pool with my options for eternity
[00:35.59] But missed the cue and chose purgatory out courtesy
[00:38.42] I was seduced to slumber by Serendipity's lips
[00:40.98] And tied to a swan feather like a rotisserie spit
[00:43.75] Heaven's on earth and I'm glad that I caught a glimpse
[00:46.65] Before they lured me to a sea of slaughtered men with water nymphs
[00:49.45] And it's torturing to think it's like this where the light ends
[00:53.61] Reminds me of America the way it's run by white men
[00:55.22] I'm tiptoeing this tempered katana edge
[00:57.59] When I take the time to wonder what's under the monster's bed
[01:00.35] These perverts play with feelings while they work nerves
[01:03.05] And a piece of me is murdered every time I say a curse word?
[01:05.76] Their land of milk and honey doesn't seem fake
[01:08.45] Cause they know you couldn't paint it in your wildest dream-scape
[01:11.26] But on the other side, we can hear our mother's cry
[01:13.88] And linger on the muffled highs of their final lullabies
[01:16.78] Your soul is scented by a potpourri of lotus leaves
[01:19.51] They float the breeze and grow beneath the rosewood trees
[01:22.37] It's poetry, no, it's closer to a finger painting
[01:25.02] From the simpler days when everything
[01:26.73] Was crayon-wax and pencil shavings
[01:28.06] I'm integrating 8 millimeter memories
[01:31.64] With letters in lipstick that ended with "Remember Me"
[01:33.39] Blanketed in purity, security's tight wrap
[01:35.70] If this is forever, f**k that, I want my life back
[01:38.90] If I was death, if I was life, if was pain, if I was strife
[01:42.10] If I was man, if I was god, would you walk toward the light
[01:44.75] If I was death, if I was life, if was pain, if I was strife
[01:47.63] If I was man, if I was god, would you walk toward the light
[01:50.32] If I was death, if I was life, if was pain, if I was strife
[01:52.98] If I was man, if I was god, would you walk toward the light
[01:55.20] If I was death, if I was life, if was pain, if I was strife
[01:58.33] If I was man, if I was god, would you walk toward the light
