The Big Rest Lyrics by Theory/Theory

Theory/Theory

2019

Highways resonate four hundred twelve ways between us
Hands are fleeting doves
The great machine is humming
Try my best to breathe
But I was born some weeks too soon
Here comes the law
This is how it ends
Dear lord save me
Open your mouth and swallow what is left
A taste so familiar
Shut up, be cool
Just do what he says
Didn't go quietly
So what, big deal
I'd rather be dead than live like animals
Crypsis in three parts
(i) dig up roots from the garden
(ii) grind them to a paste
(iii) smear it on your forehead
With facеs disappeared we can takе on countless names
What is that I hear
That's the sound of being erased
We measure time in gray hairs on our heads and soft skulls closing in
Next thing you know you're lost in the big rest
How'd it get so complicated?
