The Soiree

You find yourself pitched, drained to a pit
 Of whatever that crushes you
 Usually there's someone up top
 With what looks like some rope, it's not
 It's just for appearance
 They'd make it with twine
 But didn't have time
 Too busy planning their outfits
 To prove them a hero
 They hold you down 'til they break your will
 Everybody is taking pills
 There's all this pity we give out of sequence
 Let's just have a party, it's far more convenient
 All of the guests have arrived too early
 There's not enough sympathy to go around
 I should have had it catered
 The excuses are stocked
 The snacks aren't your fault and are certain
 Regardless of what you want to eat
 Take a dip in the pool
 The sorrows feel fine and besides
 They'll drown you eventually
 We'll all have some whine
 And feel conscious of time, existentially
 And look down our noses
 To those we find simpler
 They hold you down 'til they break your will
 Everybody is taking pills
 There's all this pity we give out of sequence
 Let's just have a party, it's far more convenient
 What are we supposed to do
 Until then
 Seriously
 Ugh
 You put so much effort in forms
 Pitch curves, depths and nobody notices
 Let yourself slip, make a mess
 Harm, break and suddenly
 Everyone's watching you
 It's not your fault
 It's just conditioning
 We all love a good wreck, I know I do
 We'll stop and stare
 Watch them peeled out
 We all love a good wreck, I know I do
 I'll have one, right now
 They hold you down 'til they break your will
 Everybody is taking pills
 There's all this pity we give out of sequence
 They hold you down 'til they break your will
 Everybody is taking pills
 There's all this pity we give out of sequence
 Let's just have a party, it's far more convenient
 How are we suppose to arrive
 If memory was already there, yeah
 How are we suppose to survive
 If memory was already there, yeah
 How are we suppose to arrive
 If memory was already there, yeah
 How are we suppose to survive
 If memory was already there
 How are we suppose to survive
