Lyndon's Lament Lyrics

I've been swimming for centuries

I could really use a break

Sometimes I just need to feel the breeze

Full breath. I'm barely awake

The ocean has hypnotic rhythm

The crashing of the waves

We're either lonely or we're with them

We're cowards or we're braves

Cause I'm lost, I'm gone, my friend

In this typhoon of paranoia

Like, fuck! am I gonna make it out of this fucking thing alive

Yes I'm jammed, jonzing my friend

In this disaster of no persona

The waters dark and deep but fuck it

I'm going full dive

Sunburn singes in moderation

Sometimes the sand feels just like needles

Passion runs hot like UV radiation

Life is a song that's written by The Beatles

Well the waters kinda shallow, do we dare it

It's true our own worst enemy is time

I found some algae, should we share it

Life is a musical written by Sondheim

Cause I'm fucked, I'm screwed my friend

In this life of inevitability

Like, fuck! I'm getting old not sure how long I'm gonna be around

I'm spent, I'm sold my friend

In this world in great need of humility

Like, what can I do

Have I bit more than I could chew

So do I run? Do I stay

What's your name What's the day

Am I chained or am I solo

Is it Marco? Is it Polo

The ship sinks with the generation

And all potential starts to drown

What logic lacks is imagination

The wise man think's he's a clown

The sea is dark and full of terrors

The soothing sirens play their role

We look for flaws but just find errors

Pervading doubt must take its toll

Cause I'm trapped, I'm dazed my friend

At this beach of wild uncertainty

Like, fuck! Does this thing have a rewind or at least have pause

Yes I'm broke, outnumbered, am I woke or encumbered

On this remote island, My friend

Do I fear isolation

Or is it communication

Can I swim Do I stay ashore

Can I paddle through the aquatic roar

And is there more

Seaside filled with grief

Inconsistency near the barrier reef

Do splash? Shall I wade

Do I shack up with a mermaid

Salty tears leave my eyes I'm all fears, no disguise

Poseidon calls. I wonder why

I cannot hide I cannot cry

I cannot lie. I cannot try

Immersed, I sigh

I need to die

I need to say goodbye

Goodbye
