buried deep in his master plan<br />
here's a format becoming defunct<br />
a bunch of tapes on a ship that sunk<br />
electric outlet in a public place<br />
so new rappers get to show their face<br />
if you're human and you're feeling displaced<br />
we've got news for you it's the kind<br />
that makes you shake in your boots<br />
and crumble down to the floor</p>

<p>Tommy Beta with his life on pause<br />
his college thesis stored in his parents garage<br />
are you into the olive branch? (are you, Tommy?)<br />
or shooting arrows in an American trance<br />
list your prescriptions on your resume<br />
and polish bullets saved for our prey<br />
add sinking feelings and we'll call it a day<br />
I wear a mask to sleep and it's old and it's made<br />
of clay and I have no idea why I do that</p>

<p>if you're guilty of some heinous crime<br />
I'll write your defense down in metered rhyme<br />
we'll make believe we got it right this time<br />
I've got news for you and me and him and her and us<br />
and everything's crumbling and rotting away<br />
but I'm content to sit here and watch it all happen<br />
with you</p>",7,1,

<p>and so you slip on past the bazaar<br /> troubles d.o.a. thus far<br /> &ldquo;I'm not so criminal<br /> in a cathedral&rdquo;<br /> you remark as the blimps fade away</p>
<p>&ldquo;is this an epilogue?&rdquo; doc asks<br /> while the nurses 5 float past<br /> &ldquo;we'd like to regulate<br /> but not aggravate<br /> and bring this dance to a close&rdquo;</p>
<p>and while you sit and think about that<br /> something invisible falls flat<br /> and we'll not know today<br /> what it had to say<br /> but I'm sure it'll be back</p>",7,9,

<p>oh, the time has come<br /> to crash right through the gates of ivory towers<br /> we must find a way<br /> to topple all the thrones</p>
<p>you were right this light it comes from the night<br /> and takes the shame out of being so latent<br /> everything that&rsquo;s been scheduled for you<br /> you call random and sleep through the days<br /> so you invest in every angle and hinge<br /> hoping there&rsquo;s something to swing from or hide in<br /> but now there&rsquo;s nothing but a precipice<br /> and an old song to sing through the night</p>
<p>oh, the time has come<br /> to crash right through the gates of ivory towers<br /> we must find a way<br /> to topple all the thrones</p>
<p>oh the time has come!<br /> oh the time has come!</p>
<p>can we quake these tectonic plates?<br /> would it shake the street that you live on?<br /> portraits tumble to the hardwood floor<br /> leaving dents and impressions of me</p>
<p>I fall asleep on an empty highway<br /> as my truck crashes into the woodlands<br /> my feet are caught but I reach the flare gun<br /> shoot it off but it&rsquo;s the 4th of July</p>",7,3,

like a magazine in the trees</p>

<p>got tangled in telemarketing<br>
dialed homesteads, look at these</p>

<p>it's a wow, i'm on fire, it's amazing so bring it to me</p>

<p>I couldn't suspend my disbelief<br>
or invest in foreshadowing</p>

<p>unreliable narrators in my bed<br>
how will they describe how I sleep?</p>

<p>&ldquo;through the night / he lays bare<br>
in the morning he's not even here&rdquo;</p>

<p>it is what it is but it's not what we thought<br>
I passed through the mirror to see<br>
I passed through the mirror to see<br>
I converted atoms to bees<br>
I pulled on the forces in threes<br>
But I left out that part of the dream</p>

I know you sent the message over twice<br />
this is the way the old gods entice</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
it still floors me</p>
<p>Sometimes I did drugs I found on the floor<br />
kept the search on point evermore<br />
pounding out words on a door</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
it still floors me</p>
<p>when you solve the mystery you become one yourself<br />
as you sink into everyone else<br />
you ask, “is this how it feels to be you?”</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
it still floors me</p>
<p>confused by classics / mistaken for miracles<br />
I was trying to read myself my rights<br />
I was trying to embrace endless nights</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
it still floors me<br />
it still floors me<br />
it still floors me</p>
<p>time travel is real<br />
but there’s a price you pay<br />
I came back to check out<br />
the places you stayed</p>
<p>there’s something in the water that’s driving us out of minds<br />
this only counts if I stay alive<br />
I know that Karen’s on our side</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
it still floors me</p>
<p>you’re only harmless when you’re asleep<br />
and darling you’re never asleep<br />
and darling you’re never asleep<br />
and darling you’re never asleep</p>
<p>it still floors me<br />
break light / all night / try to go out of your mind<br />
it still floors me<br />
somebody nobody knew: that’s me<br />
it still floors me</p>",7,15,
