Praise the Sun

Nothing means anything
Anything that we do will be meaningless eventually
Eventually even this reality itself will fade
But while we’re still here
We might as well have some fun
There’s still time yet
To Praise the Sun

Creation
06:38

Vision comes from the darkness
Vision comes from deep inside
Vision comes from something
Vision tries not to hide
I can hold it I can shape it
I can mold it in my arms
I can bend it I can break it
Its destiny is mine to plan
Ideas fall from the sky
Fall to the ground can’t catch in time
Can’t help but water down
Never again to be found
I am having a hard time
I can’t seem to get it right
Could it be lost forever
It will be if I don’t try
Creation is a nightmare
One that tears out your insides
Creation is wonderful
The pain that hurts so right
Feeling trapped the decisions
Too late now to go back
The road is set ahead
Just gotta keep myself on track
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the ending
I can’t see the
I can’t see the end and
I can’t see the end
I can see the end and
I can see the end and
It is coming soon
I can see the end and
I can see the end and
It is coming soon
I can see the end and
I can see the end and
It is coming, it is coming coming
I can see the end and
I can see the end and
It is coming soon

Most days I wish I was dead
Most days I wish I was alive
Most days I wish I could cry
But I don’t but I don’t
I keep my goddamn job instead
They always say
Keep your fucking head up
Keep your fucking head up
They love to say
Keep your fucking head up
Keep your fucking head up
They always say
Keep your fucking head up
Keep your fucking head up
So keep your fucking head up
Keep your fucking head up
But they’re the ones in the sand
They’re the ones in the sand
They’re the ones in the sand
And I don’t and I don’t
Understand
Of course I do
Go to sleep dream about your funeral
Go to work paying for your funeral
Go to sleep dream about your funeral
Go to school but don’t learn about your funeral
Go to sleep dream about your funeral
Go to work still paying for that funeral
Go to sleep dream about your funeral
Go to school but don’t learn about your funeral

Deseed me
I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal
You need me
My soil is so disturbed
But it’s my blessing to hurt
And you can go to hell for that look on your face
Cuz every cracked seed is an empty shell case
Agriculture sucks
Spreading infinity thousand miles
I am more stubborn than the wild
Spreading infinity thousand miles
I am more stubborn than the wild
I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal I’m Ruderal
You bleed me

I think you got the wrong impression
You said that I slowed down
But now I’m back to give you your resuscitation
Now that I can breathe
Now that I can breathe
This ain’t a morning sickness in health, post partem regression
This ain’t the past that you don’t know
I think that you forget that I
Am only human
And I been giving you what I need
Now she’s giving me just what I need
Don’t worry, I’m not singing, I’m just talking, I’m just talking
Don’t worry, I’m not talking, I’m just singing, I’m just singing
Don’t worry, I’m not singing, I’m just talking, I’m just talking
Don’t worry, I’ll never talk to you again
I think you got the wrong impression
You said that I slowed down
But now I’m back to give you your resuscitation
Now that I can breathe
Can’t you see she gives me just what I need?

Please tell me if I am okay
I think I might not be today
Please tell me if it’s a good shade
Of red painted on my face
Please tell me if there is a way
To leave cuz I really can’t stay
Please just walk and leave me sitting here
I think I just need to be alone
And I know the heart beats slow
But it feels so fast
And I know the heart beats slow
But it feels so fast
Put the finger to the lips
Feel it bumping
Through my veins
Feels exactly like you’d expect it
Hey can you take a look at my shirt
It feels like I’m sweating through
Hey can you take a look at my hair
It has been an especially windy day
Hey can you please hold on to this thing
Need my hand to make a little change
Hey I just want to say sorry
I know I ain’t being very fun right now
And as the sun goes down
The mind fogs up
And as the sun goes down
The mind fogs up
This is when I know
I am alive
Even though I know
It takes its toll on you
Just hold me to the things I talk about
I know I don’t take my own advice
Just hold me to the things that come out my mouth
I know I am massive hypocrite
Just know that I try to shape my life
I know I ain’t doing so great
Just know that I feel every pain
Every failure is my personal badge of shame
And I know the song goes on
The song goes on
Yeah I know the song goes on
Right now
And I know the song goes on
The song goes on
Yeah I know the song goes on
Right now
And I know the song goes on
The song goes on
Yeah I know the song goes on
Right now
And I know the song goes on
The song goes on
I know the song goes on
Right now
I know the song goes on
The song goes on
Yeah I know the song
Goes on right now
I know the song goes on
The song goes on
Yeah I know the song
Goes on right now
I know the song goes on the
Song goes on
I know the song goes on right now
