You Get Bigger As You Go

Lyrics

So I find out what the luxury of hate is
 As exciting maybe as doing the dishes
 Face toward window -- light received
 You walk away to see a film
 See some people see a man
 Stab in throat twist in gut all too clear
 Not too new -- all been done before
 Planet breathes exhaustion
 Staggers on
 Wnemy anger impotent gun grease
 Too many thoughts
 Too dogshit tired
 One small step for freedom
 From foregone conclusion
 You get bigger as you go
 No one told me -- I just know
 Bales of memory like boats in tow
 You get bigger as you go
 You get bigger as you go
 Spent all day afraid to talk
 Redneck children laugh out loud
 I being target live and walk
 You get bigger as you go
 Telephone snarls 'don't touch me'
 You move in waves like the midnight blues
 You vector of this weird dis-ease
 You get bigger as you go
 News reruns -- dawn comes rainbow
 Pain takes shape of grimy window
 You get bigger as you go
