lyrics

There’s a person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
From doing the important work that you were born to do
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
From crossing everything all out and starting over new

Paint the piece of paper black
Paint the table the paper is on black
And any other objects that rest on the table
The wall, the floor, your shoes, the negative space
If they cut off your hand is it still you
If they cut off your arm is it still you
If they want your whole torso
Your heart and your lungs and whatever else is there
What are you gonna do
If they…

We signed up for dystopia
It was a failure of imagination
We signed up for the Devil in manageable increments
It was the price of freedom
We signed up for dystopia
It was a failure of imagination
Don’t you wish you’d thought of anything better
Don’t you wish you’d thought of anything

If they cut off your nose is it still you
If they cut off your face is it still you
If they want your whole brain, the whole thing
Not just a little part of it what are you gonna do
Paint the piece of paper black
Paint the table the paper is on black
And anything that stands in your way on the table
The chairs, the seizure inducing fluorescent lights
And the person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
There’s a person whose job is to stop you
From chewing a hole in the world and escaping through
