lyrics

PIETY

Piety isn’t what is used to be, but gravity is a lonely one man band. Recovery happens only once or twice three times if you’re lucky but delivery is better than all of that combined, Heavenly isn’t what it used to be but gravity is still a lonely one man band. property doesn’t make you who you are it just defines who you’re not by establishing physical boundaries. ... I kissed him in the nimbus. I couldn’t see his eyes for the length of his hair. Meet me in the nimbus. I’ll be waiting there for you. Comedy isn’t what it used to be, but notoriety is a lonely one man band. High society doesn’t get you what you want, it just makes you want things that are harder to get. … Sexuality isn’t what it used to be. But virginity is still a lonely one man band. But the memories, they never make you who you are they just portray who you were through the romanticized lens of consciousness fragmented. But delivery is better than all of that combined.
