Lyrics

Out on the dirty pavement… the sky washed overhead
The mechanic and the mystic… put their tweaks on reality
Inside the corner tavern… the barkeep wiped a shotglass
And wondered to himself… why it felt so damn empty
Kneeling in the garden… the medicine woman hummed her tune
While digging out the bindweed… and pinching off the fava
The witch was in the kitchen… brewing up a storm
She missed those carefree days of old… with the lightning and the lava… aaah

And all the sirens of the city… seemed like they were singing
out the secret everybody… already knew

It was a simpler world… before all this life… made the beauty… so complicated
so complicated… so complicated

The plot began to thicken… all the orphans smelled the pudding
A dark storm front was coming… charging up the air
Handing out epiphanies… like new age party favors
But the honest ones just wanted… an exit pill right out of there
With profits to be made… when people are unhappy
The wealthy built their bunkers… to entomb themselves alive
Consciousness was getting… more than anticipated
God was drunk on her creation… high on her own supply… ihhh
