I’ve been waiting three seasons to hear one goddamn reason
why what you call patriotic always smells like treason to me.
My throat blisters as we start sinking.
My dear friend, you’ve not quite bloomed.
CHORUS:
My dear friend
I cannot stay
Another day with you and we’ll wash away.
You’re killing yourself. You’re killing me
and I’m not ready to drown this time.
You made my mouth dry a thousand times
as your profits soar high over a thousand lines
but I can’t stand on this world as it turns into powder.
Say it louder
You’re not quite bloomed.
CHORUS
You made my life into a rushing river.
Let’s go deeper and deeper.
Hold me close as you slip down.
But I can only hold my breath so long before I choke and drown.
Let’s go deeper and deeper...
CHORUS
