lyrics

Don’t have no say in it
You’ll be just fine
Can’t find no shame in it
Your beaming feckless pride

You’ll erect a statue of yourself
It’s your only love
Go have a game with it

Can’t see from that height
You buy your delight
You’re hollow inside
You think that you earned your life
The fiction that you write

You’re not what you say you are

Hard sold your claim in it
As red as your hands
You run from the blame in it
I think you can’t understand

Hollow statue looming tall
What goes up surely comes to fall
You’ll go the same with it.

Can’t see from that height
You buy your delight
You’re hollow inside
You think that you earned your life
The fiction that you write

You’re not what you say you are

This is a great album. Kinda like if Guided By Voices used GarageBand instead of a 4-track. Ben Spizuco
