[Verse 1: Zach Quinn]
Exhume the dead decathlon
We're running races on all fours
I am a snowflake to satiate the yearning
To wet the tongues of thirsty ne'er-do-wells
Appease the peasant
In the quarters of the puppeteers
A child that can't wipe its own ass
But knows enough to feel ashamed
I'm stretched as thin as fishing line
In a vessel stuck in neutral on an infinite decline
[Interlude: Zach Quinn]
Yeah, oh what a privilege to remain submerged
Compassion's only real when it hurts
[Verse 2: Zach Quinn]
Drag your fingers between my lips, please teach me how
Live in an unearned home in my heart
My love undone, I am the one celestial c*ckroach
Ask and receive
Hear and discard
Gather your toys
Play in the yard
Stray from our sight and immediately the memory's gone, discover what we do is secret
[Verse 3: Zach Quinn]
Frail, the connection, disciple and messiah
The strings that lift my fingers to the sky
Unclear discernment
Am I god or another stock marionette
Built to believe he is unique?
Stray from our sight and immediately the memory's gone, discover what we do is secret
Hush darling
