The Republic Of Wolves - Keep Clean Lyrics
We're all holding onto banisters'cause it's a long way, it's a long way downAnd the enemy of common senseIs a loose grip and a steep stairwellSo toss me too and fro 'til I condemnThe very scent of being stillAnd we'll litter all the wayShed all our trappings for the rest to wade throughNo matter how narrow is our pathAnd we could never name our burdensBut still, they pained us all the sameI never knew my contextBut that's just fineYeah, I'm stuck outside of my shaking mindI never felt an inside so ill-definedNever compromise if you've still got timeSo we're all ordaining ministers'cause we can't keep, no we can't keep cleanWe've been refering to a hypocriteWith a kind voice and a loud ideaHe divided up the races with a pencilAnd the book of GenesisAnd sorted us into companies and coloniesAll pitted up against each otherNo matter how, no matter how common is out causeI never knew my contextBut that's just fineYeah, I'm stuck outside of my shaking mindI never felt an inside so ill-definedNever compromise if you've still got timeI was a visionaryLost all my visionYou were a missionaryMisplaced your missionI collected up my feelings and my crownsAnd went to sleep without a soundTo distribute all my thoughtsAmong inanimate depictions of myselfJust myself
