One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy

from You Were Right About Me EP by Worst Kid Ever

	/

lyrics

Mulling over
the severed ties
Cakewalks over broken glass
to watch the casings die

So crack them open
Idle hands craft lies
placed upon pedestals to just
wither away with time

'Cause you should know
that every halo yields to touch
Try to figure out
a way to block the sun

And I don't think this song will last forever
if there's noone in this world who can relate

But the air of admiration
won't taste like aspiration
without second wind
Fast forward to the end
Time will wear at your grandeur
I used to haunt this place
to find a saving grace
They won't name storms after me

Mulling over
outrageous lies
And you can not just hold your breath
when you're feeling the water rise

Because we know at times
you don't fake this all alone
Please just tell me that you know
you're not that strong

And I don't think this songs are going to linger
'cause they're falling short on what you could relay

But the air of admiration
won't taste like aspiration
without second wind
fast forward to the end
Time will wear at devotion
I used to haunt this place
The calm named after me
will carry me away
