-ness (jesse weisberg and ethan peck) - the propagandist lyrics

Loading...

verse 1:
simmer down, gather round-
the king has come to speak
to teach you how to think
easy lies the head that wears the crown
the truth is here but it can’t be found
and you get tired of searching

a king plays faith like a game–
no different than money, power, and fame
shifting blame where it pays
a king will get his way

chorus:
when you’re broken and looking for something to believe
when you mistake truth for honesty
hard to see you when you’re acting like somebody else–
trust everybody but yourself

and all the moments and the memories we used to share
were polluted by a tidal wave of septic air
i start to wonder
if you are still there

verse 2:
simmer down, simmer down
oh, we’ve been down this road before–
they know you way too well
i can tell you’re shaken up
by the posters on the wall–
you let them in too easy

tear ‘em off the wall or find another friend to call–
i don’t want your propaganda no more

words seep through your bones
let the church absolve your soul
and dissolve your fate in a prayer;
dissolve your trust in the air

chorus:
when you’re broken and looking for something to believe
when you mistake truth for honesty
hard to see you when you’re acting like somebody else–
trust everybody but yourself

and all the moments and the memories we used to share
were polluted by a tidal wave of septic air
i start to wonder
if you are still there

outro:
written down on the holiest of scriptures
no wiser than the popcorn pictures
people cave to the grandest illusion
m-ss ignorance just an easier solution
and on my tombstone, i really hope it read that i bled
for the thoughts in your head you never said
and to think from hope and not fear–
i would rather be van gogh’s left ear
than have a sensible sustainable career
and i would rather smoke a j on the veranda
than listen to your propaganda
