Mangy Lyrics

Protective

Selective

And I take it all for granted till I feel neglected

Suspension

Ascension

Up and up until I feel a connection

Recycle, rehash, never learned to relax

Criticize feedback, microphone throne - no seat-backs

Wait who's that? Mr. Backtrack?

Cracking backs just to force an acid flashback?

Looking for links to the past

Where's the ocarina?

Gazing through the looking glass

But I haven't seen ya

After birth, before death

We're just in-betweeners,

Human breeders scared of being seniors

On our last breath, shall we take a breather?

Wait

Do I live to work or do I work to live?

Do I live to work or do I work to live?

Do I live to work?

No rest for the weary

Protest - oh so leery

Confess cuz I'm clearly

Depressed it's not a theory

Mangey Mutt

Preparing blunts

Too scared to jump

Debbie downer looking around for the right side up

I'm upside down, wait, where's the upside now?

Roadside clown, okay, last act watch me drown

So tell me…am I, man enough now? Mismanage my doubt

Inorganic clouds, keep on following around

It's been a short week, but a, long day

I just can't speak, i don't, know what to say

So judge me, since I'm, yours to take

But lately, it all comes in waves

Little bit of good, little bit of bad

Little bit of mom, little bit of dad

Now look at that, a combination of thoughts, I'm stagnant

Passive, how could anyone let this happen?

It's madness, that everything we do becomes past tense

We're fractions - of who we wanna be

We're ashes - in a phoenix style of belief

We're matches - let desire be gasoline

We're addicts - hooked on drugs like sex and caffeine

24/7 grump

The curtains closed and times up

Serpents exposed with knives right behind us, so why trust?

In god I trust - If that god is us

If not I must say something's up

I can not accept something just because

Man doesn't know a thing, he just thinks he does

Just a busy bee, searching for a buzz

Just a little boy, searching for a fucking hug

Just a human being, searching for some love

Just a little decoy awaiting to self-destruct

Toe to toe with never letting go

Hold it close but never let it show
