Lyrics - The World Owes Me Something

All our yesterdays like ashes 

All our dreams in water washes 

Away into the winding stream 

Weaving winding byzantine 

Straight to the sea of desire 

Where dreams plot and where they conspire 

Kill the living steal their flesh 

To the land of nod and of death 

 

The world owes me something x 4

But I don't know what it is x2

 

One day one day we all will die 

We had a fountain but they stripped it dry 

And I feel a ripple in time itself 

Stop the travesty of souls to sell 

Debt collectors armed to the teeth 

Serve the papers and they kill the thief 

Anthill skyline blocks the sun 

Like a growing carcinogen 

 

(Chorus)

 

They won't rest until everything is commodified 

Cheapened deadened surveilled and privatized 

Prisoners of automated paralysis 

Humanity consumed by the sheer force of our artifice 

There's nowhere to hide in the desert of the real 

We must tear down the walls of the city on the hill 

The system zeroes in with it's omniscient eye 

A hunter honing in on it's kill

 At least the hippies had a reprieve from the churning gears 

At least they could (indistinct) greed and fear 

Now we are pawns of the atrociously wealthy 

Our only reprieve xanax blackouts and fentanyl ODs
