Lyrics
We crossed paths in the Walmart of my subconscious
Your war paint was a dark shade I hardly recollect
An ultraviolet Ultra-violence, green and black
Your lashes were flapping like the wings
Of some extinct insect
Sending shockwaves through my spine
Sending shockwaves through my mind
We deserve somewhere better to explore
Like an old forgotten thrift store
But my mind has no directory
And I haven't enough old memories
You turned to me and screamed "What's next to steal?"
How do I know you're even real
Or just validating how I feel
And even here people think I'm a weirdo
Because I treat the people like they're people
Bearing witness to the unspoken evil
Alienating eyes
I see through your disguise
My other lover was there in spirit
Buying their poison medication
Because the allergens are getting worse
Like an anti-human chemical warfare of the Earth
Show my how to break free. (Break free!)
How deep has the marketing gotten to me
'Cause in this world I've discovered
Nobody seems to mind how much you suffer
And I'm fearful of the chance that you won't understand
Oh, I'm fearful of the chance that nobody understands
No
The aisles stretched for miles
I see the Devil in the details
Oh my friend, I think I see the end
And it's far beyond the shelves
How do I break free from this waking dream
To where no one can hear me scream again
Well then
Love seems to be all that is free
From the grasp of those who've gone and
Privatized everything
Even the people, the words, the water, these chords
The show must go on; you've got to finish the song
'Cause this Spectacle ain't giving sway
They've stolen everything away
Even my subconscious Walmart
And my subconscious you
And my subconscious me
And it's revealed to be that
Love is all that is free
And someday, you'll see
