lyrics

And it seemed so simple.
If we can't communicate, this shit's outtadate,
It doesn't tesselate; separate.
A tin foil tenacity hurried past me,
I'm still the last to see, passively.
If we can't communicate where pretty women love their children and
Men's opinions will always be heard
I was swimming all around you,
In the distance and by your word,
by your word, I was hurt
by your word, overinferred

If that's all it ever meant, chalk one up to sacrament,
Sacrilege testament's best intents.
'cause you're the one, says all the nonsense
taken on since in the wrong sense, I'm the bastard ever after
gotta laugh til you cry
on and on, sets up a license for lies and I'm nothing complex, I swear, I care.
and it seemed that simple where pretty women love their children and
Men's opinions will always be heard
I was swimming all around you
In the distance and by your word,
by your word, I was hurt
by your word, Overinferred you

well I took a second and I took a third
and I ask the question and best learn
and I never hear for I never heard, listen, never heard by your festering word, your word
I was hurt by your word
Overinferred you and your word
