lyrics

Your every limb just hanging from strings fashioned by demand.
And I animate your bodies with the dancing of my hands.
The days spent pulling strings allow me ascendancy.
When I move, you move. I control you when I move.
I control you and you and you.
I control you when I move.

From here, I see thousands of you.
But you can't see yourselves
A proud forrest tall with fools.
From here, I look magical to you.
But I won't root myself
Amongst any one of you.

From here...

Marching to the beat of your own drum?
You couldn't be more wrong.
You stand another soldier
Controlled by the same song.
The colors pinned on me
They grant me authority.
When I move, you move.
I control you when I move.

From here, I see thousands of you.
But you can't see yourselves
A proud forrest tall with fools.
From here, I look magical to you.
But I won't root myself
Amongst any one of you.

From here...
They're all around me.
From here...
You all surround me.

You can't understand creativity
Though you created me.

about

Abandonner San Diego, California

Featuring original members of Destroy The Runner and current members of Hell Or Highwater.

Life is not as idle ore,
But iron dug from central gloom,
And battered by the shocks of doom
To shape and use.
-Oswald Chambers
