about

What if time, but too much?

lyrics

In the used to be,
Long before the alienation,
When the world was all apart,
We were happy then,
Nothing that upsetting happened.
Why did history have to start?

Always with the sticky mist of overcooked nostalgia.
Permanently letting sickly stimuli arouse you,
Only watch the news that skews to things you espouse, you can let the
Algorithms choose what views appear on your browser, you’re taking
Liberties with what poetic licence allows you, your
Critical thinking’s just getting lousier and lousier, ‘cos you’ve got
One hand on the mouse, you’ve got the other down your trousers,
You get that – carpal tunnel syndrome after too many hours, son.

Can we not go back,
Back to when the sky was happy?
When the scripts were all rehearsed?
This is upside down,
One man’s meat’s another’s poison,
How did things get all reversed?

Predicate logic dictates that these are the lessons:
Nobody’s so different they merit a separate essence.
Yeah, some people are crosses, and some others are crescents, but every other motherfucker’s chugging antidepressants. We’re all
Just one step ahead of the delirium tremens, right from
Baby’s first puke right through repressed adolescence, up to the
Moment we relinquish all our leftover lemons,
From the lemonade we never made ‘cos we were betting on getting to heaven.

When it all made sense,
Every creature knew its station.
Now they’ve all got big ideas.
Take it all away,
I no longer want these choices,
Dial it back a million years.

In the used to be,
There were just a dozen colours,
Before the dimming of the sun,
I remember times,
Back before the information,
When the truth was much more fun.
