The Upward Spiral - Bent Knee

The horizon is heavy

The water says it could be worse

The air says it will never change

An equilibrium of sorts

Grotesque colors that flex

Baring their teeth as they drive

I tell you I need you now more than ever

And you say

(Yeah)

And I say, «Well, yeah, but did you hear me right?»

And you say

(Yeah)

And I get this feeling that you’re not really listening

And you say

(Yeah)

And I want to tell you that you are the line in the sand

And you say

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

You have it all figured it out

You feel safe inside your house

You turn your head and look around

And realize I’m you

And you are me

And I am you

I’m complacent inside the crowd

Waiting for a pat on the snout

Frightful I might scuff up my brow

What kind of fucked-up shit is that?
