Music and lyrics by Gabriel Zucker

lyrics

You’ll live forever ‘til the end of time
Invincible to rhythm and to rhyme
Cloistered on the platform of the world

You’re the hunger of the one who’s always fed
You’re the thinking of a thought that’s always said
You’re electric shocks inside a silver ball

String-snapping cold-catching woman in maroon
Metal gears, scratching ears, copper-cased cocoon
What did you do with the princes and the pigs
Living off their toothaches and the sinking oil rigs

Think of them
Of them, not of you
Isn’t much surprise that you can’t
They’re just so completely out of view

Drip drying, evil-eying pitcher full of ale
Supercharged credit cards eating through the mail
Why did you clip those lenses on my eye
And did you take them from the body that was coming through the rye

Well you’re on the track and trying not to fail
Don’t you know, there’s plans that no one can derail
And they’re you, they’re you, all those plans are you

Think of them
Of them, not of you
Isn’t much surprise that you can’t, dear
That’s the thing you never learned to do

Tip-tapping, milk lapping, girl from Ashtebula
Standing in a daisy field holding up a tulip
How did you prune the layers off the moon
To keep them in a jar behind the pillar in your room

On the track, there’s room for just a few
We work so hard to learn that nothing’s new
And when you run, you know you’ll be alone
