Dirt Lyrics by Memorize the Dictionary

Nihilism is the Spice of Life (But You Can’t Live on Cumin Alone)

2019

[Verse 1]
We're building a shrine
We’re gonna build a shrine
To only serve the dirt
We're building a shrine
We're gonna build a shrine
To only serve the dirt
This earth’s a bit too full
The people a bit too dull to even raise a complaint
This space a bit too cramped
The plan a little too far gone to even live through it all
[Chorus 1]
All my life and all your life
Everybody putting off turning out the light
Taking great care to relieve your fear
For all the nothing you could ever hear
[Verse 2]
Our bodies are dirt and our minds puzzles
Freshwater ponds with little fish
With a single thought, a single wish
Trying to make the fish live out our wish
Our wish to be more than just dirt
More than just dirt
But we're all just dirt
We're all just dirt
We'll all be the same
We'll all be the same
We'll all be the same
[Chorus 2]
Think to yourself, it's thinking to everybody else
There's a point to living if you believe that you’re by yourself
So long as you’re made of everyone you know
You are everyone you've ever known
[Outro]
So long as you’re made of everyone you know
You are everyone you've ever known
