Mission Creep Lyrics

If I've said it once, I've said it a hundred times

I want off the ride

At once

This behemoth keeps sliding off the rails

Like it was doomed to fail

Just not all at once

I need you here with the sedative

Plucked from the fire, from the menagerie

Given a voice to speak

Like a loaded gun

Run it down the wire, towards the ecstasy

The collective memory,

Not knowing for why

I need you here with the sedative

Oh god, the unspeakable horror

The untamed lack of a form

The unnamable

'arrrggghhhhhhhhh'

Why is anything happening?

What keeps bringing catastrophe

To all that I love?

What keeps making the mission creep

And spoiling the masterpiece

Tt might have become?

If it's deeper than capital,

Then it's deeper than capital

And I need you here with the sedative
