lyrics

Any of the following - we have no filter so some lyrics are optional:

Dazing through another day,
Signing names and paying endless dues,
Filter out the padded self, polish it but make it visceral,
Sometimes it helps with it all.

{Ripping Guitar Solo}

Play to your strengths, predestination has it’s perks,
Parallels everywhere you look,
Commitment’s nothing but a breeding ground for further discontent
Don’t place too much stock in not-for-profits

Chorus:
Forget about it,
Sometimes a yes is never enough,
And as life passes you by,
You’re a better fling than a friend,
It’s a bigger sin than a threat,
There’s no perfect fit, I’m afraid.

{Ripping Guitar Solo}

She’s shot herself again, he’s more machine thaan maaan,
Forget about it now, you can read me like a thesaurus
Sometimes I don’t even care if it’s my way all day

Outro:
If you fail the Choosing, as context is skewing,
All the good intentions are just an easy way to play / paler shade of grey,
If nine-tenths are moving, everyone is losing,
All the good intentions are just an easy way to play / paler shade of grey.

If you’ve had enough, I think I’ll forget,
When you’ve had enough, it’s time to forget
I’ve had enough, I think I forget
Background noise can cause me to forget
If you’ve had enough of feeling content,
There’s no replacement for content.
