lyrics

I read the entertainment of the times
Polish dirty words till the beauty is so blurred
And burnt into scripture for the blind
And then I laugh
Cause my skin’s too thick to shed another tear
And the ramparts can't hold back the waves
And people moving in two different ways
And the rhythm is unclear...don't ya think?

There's too much information for our times
I try hard not swallow all the tricks that make you follow
And click and like the pissings of our lives
And then I find
A snippet leaked into the atmosphere
With words as real as yesterday was here
The coyotes of Cape Breton took her down
Her name was Taylor Mitchell
Or it used to be
Cause she said it was
And she would sing…

There's too much information for our times
I watch them gather misfits and cross them off the shit list
Mr. Twisted Twitter is on fire
I think it's time
to keep a cashless strategy in range
and sew into the seeds another tragedy
The writing on the wall is not imagined
It’s old and it's fantastic
And It's saying
Welcome to the new catastrophe
Bouncing off the walls of sound
The coyotes of Cape Breton took her down
Took her down

I read the entertainment of our times
