lyrics

i don't mind the taste of wine
deep beneath the scented pines
watch you dance in the river's flow
wearing in your summer clothes

read the book expand your mind
behind the veil is a filthy life
beneath my eye it withers and dies
the question is what's left behind

fall asleep with a fuzzy feel
wake up do stuff let's spin the wheel
crammed it all then i crammed more
couldn't quite fit spilled on the floor

insects are crawling over me
and i think i like it
mosquito take my blood
take my everything

defy the foot

ice cream cake and red balloons
children's laughs and fathers' wounds
birthdays come and birthdays pass
nothing's lost and nothing lasts

take the drug expand your mind
pull back the rug what do you find?
it turns out you were only standing on air
the question is whether you care

inside of me is a spinning wheel
it turns no matter how i feel
it moves slower than i can think
life is best when we're in sync

insects are crawling over me
and i think i like it
come with me we'll swim in truth
into the deep end

defy the foot
