lyrics

I am searching for a subject to blame
I have double standards to maintain
Misinformation does not compose itself
PR exercise has worn us out

This is love
This is a surface
Can you see the difference?
Can you wipe it clean?
I know what I wanted and it wasn't this
Can you say what it is?
Can you leave it alone to be its own world alone and lonely?

Ludwig Wittgenstein
Wrote all kinds of truths but lies still stalk the world
In ancient form and the plainest sight
Comprehend the words
Apprehend the world

I am looking for an object to tame
I have empty propositions to entertain
This is a verb
This is an action
Can you forget its name?
Can it exist without one?
I know how it felt and it was more than this
Can't say what it was
Bit I can't leave it alone to be a world adrift and lonely

Ludwig Wittgenstein
Found all kinds of lies in the lines of causal form
Wrapped around the world as thin green twine
Wrap it up
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Forged all kinds of truths but lies still stalk the world
In ancient form, in the plainest sight
Comprehend the words
Apprehend the world
Recall the tune
Comprehend the words
Apprehend the world
