Kind Of Like Spitting - Continent lyrics

rate me

Dumb and numb, from young and wired

All I do is wait

Pushy and hungry for more

Curtis, do you know what our lives are for now?

That it's been 3 weeks and no one talks about you anymore?

All I do is wait

We are a sea of fragility

And so ready to surf the sink

'Til the sponges are flooded and we're all forced underneath

All I do is wait

I'm so good at condescending

It's so good for my weak ego

Can't get past what comes naturally to me

It comes natural to use

There's a fairness in the city

There's a new smell in the air

Satisfaction promised

But the sentiment ends there

All the Capricorn reactions

In the river up to my knees

A hundred little baby fishes

With baby bottle mouths to feed

Crooners crawl themselves like whores

Across the barroom floor

My mother used to hold me,

I hold her now that she's old

After all it's just a notion

Nothing really in the end

'Til a good one leaves the continent

You just can't write words to send

I guess everything's just perfect

It's all true, what you've been told

Run and tell your good friends that you just got sold
