The Resort Beyond the Last Resort Lyrics by Collapsing Scenery

The Resort Beyond the Last Resort (EP)

2018

[Verse 1]
You're prized in your circle for old-fashioned ways
We can't see the ceiling; your boot's in the way
[Pre-Chorus]
The twentieth century ran by your rules
The twenty-first looks like it might follow suit
[Chorus]
You just itch to get the job done
You're expedient and foolish, too
Kill a man and claim the war's won
Back in the shadows where we can't see you
[Post-Chorus]
You wither in the open
You shrivel in the sun
To you, negotiation
Is the barrel of a gun
[Verse 2]
Left with a choice between reason and rhyme
You've made it clear, you'll choose rhyme every time
[Pre-Chorus]
You know what they say about history and farce
But your tragedies were a farce from the start
[Chorus]
You stumble into situations
You couldn't recognize the right track
Your shortsightedness is stunning
Always a step behind the blow-back
[Post-Chorus]
You wither in the open
You shrivel in the sun
To you, negotiation
Is the barrel of a gun
[Outro]
It's too deep for us to take
