about

The first single off the upcoming Vitamins EP.

lyrics

Oh my lord!
Not this time
Fooled a fool and you drank is wine
Make him question God's design
He's been misreading all His signs

What's this now?
There's more in store
Let's buy it up til they ship some more
Lick the floors, on all fours
Run right at the matador

Run real fast 
Fast as sin
Burning down the house again
Choking on the alphabet
Talk for me when I forget

My first language
Was it all made up 
By some reckless genius
With too much time

Knock me out
Knit me socks
My feet get cold when your preaching stops
Idle hands can't climb on top
So take my cash and buy me stock

Say my name
Say my name
Please don't go against my grain
Tell me again why I'm still sane
Where's my cage to keep me tame

Where's my cage?
Where's my man?
God is just a ceiling fan
Cools me off from Satan's hand
You told me this then stole my land

What does this all mean?
Am I too young to judge?
I’m so fuckin' naive
I just want enough


Cool me off when I burn out
Yea you're right I shouldn't doubt
Things fly right out my mouth
Tell me twice what I'm about

Oh I'm okay
But I'm messed up
Measure air inside my cup
Make sure I don't have too much
Ration out the things I love

Read out loud
Tell me tales
Get goosebumps and teach me braille
Buy the ocean set my sails
Anything that cures what ails

This world has its limits
Or so I've been told
I won't care how it's spinning
Once it's in my hands
