ETC Lyrics by Q Curius

Abrasive Materials

2016

[Verse 1]
Name one thing that I got on you
You ain't got on me
It's not a score for sure, but you close to knowin’
That that’s what I keep
When smokin’ loud, I see the shroud
And I let that shit sweep
Down around what I’m sleepin on
What I keep around like it's clean
You tryin’ callin’ me when I’m three hours retired
I let you know some things, but I still feel disquiet
You got a job when the kindlings always fired
You tamper with the smoke detector, now I'm glad you lying
Etcetera, what’s relevant is better love
What I jettison is reticence, etcetera, etcetera
We greedy with the medicine
And the future just as menacing
So I understand your decadence, etcetera, etcetera
If making love is meddling
My sediment unsettling
Then metaphor’s my element, etcetera, etcetera
You suffer through my regimen
My regiments is jealous, and
You fuckin with me celibate, etcetera, etcetera

[William Butler Yeats]

[Bridge 1: Mark Naida]
They burn everything I am
And what little I have
Oh, they burn everything I am
Oh, etcetera, etcetera

[Verse 2]
We greedy with the medicine
And the future just as menacing
So I understand your decadence, etcetera, etcetera
If making love is meddling
My sediment unsettling
Then metaphor’s my element, etcetera, etcetera
You suffer through my regimen
My regiments is jealous and
You fuckin with me celibate, etcetera, etcetera

[Bridge 2: Mark Naida]
They burn everything I am
And what little I have
They burn everything I have
Etcetera, etcetera

[Verse 3]
Assimilate what I can’t relate
What I can’t escape, I span the grate
Try to celebrate what elevates
Trying to grab up on its leg while it escalates
You tryin’ callin me when I’m six hours retired
You know me better, you said it, I tried to kill it, I fed it
My mind as wretched as reddit
At the bottom of comments, you want a star or a comet
Well, I'm neither, I’m sonically afraid to spill like a faucet
You say I’m twisted, I lost it
But that the way that we blossom, and I am
Coppin’ from prophets to say
You gotta take losses, and you need that kenosis
Cuz that's the way that we toss it
So feel the breeze on your noses
Invent a new name for roses
And let the leaves of mimosas close on you:
That's a world you gotta let go to respect, though, so I get your
Affection and I accept it, but close those doors before I am
Taking nasty exceptions in the crassest directions, so good night, now
Night now, night, yeah, etcetera, what's relevant is better love
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera
