lyrics

I use the black screen as a mirror for my makeup
and wake up the machine to the made-up world my mind is made of
There’s something wrong with it, there’s something wrong with it
It reads me like an illustrated booklet
And it’s not a sin to not be generating folderol at all times
Your body’s got better burdens to shoulder
It’s the experience, it’s the experience
How can I be more myself while denying myself of the fact that I simply exist

A life sublime
A primetime prize

It’s one big rosy-hued, hollow-hearted focus group
guided by the patterns of what we consume
Decisions in aggregate, equations cased in skin
reinforcing structures we find ourselves in

And I live for it
Yes, I live for it

A life sublime
A primetime prize

What are these earthly forms for
What if not to please ourselves
What are these earthly forms for
What if not each other
Then what
