[00:06.88] If you're wondering how we landed here
[00:10.50] You were watching the waves and drinking beer
[00:14.44] You don't even remember standing up
[00:18.06] Truly, I don't either
[00:20.50] At some point you waded to your waist
[00:24.21] As you slipped further out the stakes were raised
[00:28.12] Finally you were surrounded, and for what?
[00:31.86] A water darker and deeper
[00:36.18]
[00:37.76] In 1997 I became myself1997
[00:41.37] And 20 minutes later I began to melt20
[00:45.26] The cycle I get used to in the course of time
[00:49.08] The shifting definitions that comprise a life
[00:53.04] The people I become and the people I don't recognize
[01:00.05] If you're wondering who arranged the mess
[01:03.60] Some exceptions were made to grant, I guess
[01:07.45] While we all let the peak of the parade
[01:11.51] The underbelly went lethal
[01:15.96]
[01:16.62] In 2007 tried to build a bridge2007
[01:20.51] Between how I was living and how I could live
[01:24.56] Tricked myself into thinking I'd done enough
[01:28.53] Once I got across I didn't blow it up
[01:32.33] Yeah, I closed some lanes
[01:34.40] All it really takes is one opening to tear apart all your works
[01:43.21] So fine you are,
[01:45.42] delicate, un-achieve, all your half-philosophy
[01:53.39] Style points, blind belief, a whirling perpetuity
[02:00.96] The ocean warm that knows you did the same before
[02:07.91] So in 2017 we did away with facts
[02:12.12] All negotiation with a battle axe
[02:15.71] The gruesome ideology is center shame
[02:19.66] American identity was laid to waste
[02:23.50] We're backlit and exposed
[02:25.57] Sugar stripped and it's made clean
[02:31.67] The people I become
[02:33.65] The people I can't replicate
