The Dodos - The Strums Lyrics
The image on the boardSelling things we can't affordBut we're still buying up in a frenzyCause our hearts just yearn for moreIs this sin, all he want?Is offerings we got?But soon you'll be overrating eyesOh people they can't be goodWhen what comes next on the market shouldBut we go on because its understoodBut you can only hope, when they say that they want youYeah, they'll say that they want you, when they don'tIt's like a chandelierIt's like a fountain headThe strings are all thereA chain link fence to convince youThat you're never awareFor things that which you spareAre at cause they don't care about youDon't care of what you've doneYou're fooled by everyoneBut soon you'll go get your daddy's gunAnd go out to recollectFrom all the guards that you put in debtIt's time you learn that you cannot change (can't hide shame/change)But you forgetBut you will always think when they say that they want you, When they say that they want you, that they don'tYou wait but somedays never comeYour prophesying here is doneYou're only left with what you begIn toward you can, begone your wayThe others wait till they're okayThey're only left with what they beg, beg, begSo children kill your teachersKill your parents, then kill your preachersBecause you know, that they'll only will doubt youWhen they start to lose their featuresIts okay that there goneTorturing you is all they wantAnd lesson learned, now lesson taughtYou just know what they forgotCause they didn't get to find out what you sought
