The Tape

Now they're calling for the second time today

Asking for to borrow those two tapes again

Is it really worth the struggle of covering up?

On the brink and learning how to live with it

Got experience from method toting deep within

And they say it's so inflammable

Am I caught in a trap with all the remains of a letdown?

All the remains of a letdown

Speak out if you got it

Watch out if you run

Since I heard someone died at a screening downtown of a tape

Now they're running round drawing circles and

Living up to everything you think of them

Such a senseless slender guy and his greater half

On a mission for the local government

Looking for a tape that's gonna pay the rent

And they say it's so inflammable

The cats will whine the dogs will itch

So bury the beat and forget them

Raise the remains of a letdown

Speak out if you got it

Watch out if you run

Since I heard someone cried at a screening

Downtown of a tape

Of a tape

Ok

Now it's coming out the story we all knew

In equal parts all that you did and that you didn't do

Was it really worth the struggle of covering up?

Leave it playing till it spells the ending back

Is this what happens if you suffer like a cardiac?

Will you beg to be excused for always dumbing down

Or wrenching up

Now all that's left is a letdown

The view in reverse of a letdown

Speak up if you got it

Watch out if you run

Since I heard someone died at a screening

Downtown of a tape, of a tape
