This Black Rainbow - Grey Math

My blood clots like slow thoughts my words spatter red
If intuition is a feeling reaching back for recognition
Then love isn't blind it's a consumate liar
And everyone I know is bound to fuck it up so oops
My chest is a cannon my heart is a bomb
My petty discomforts on insurance forms
I will binge watch the fall of the bourgeoisie
And watch somebody else become the change that we all wanna see
But grey math and black swans they taunt us all
A joke that rambles on with no punchline at all
Hopeful but deranged
No beauty without strangeness
And all I see is strangeness
When I was a kid
I stole things I didn't need
Because I believed
In grey math

Shit like a ballerina fuck like a sage
And then convince me the map fits inside the terrain
The new generation don't know how to live
We're stewards of a planet that has nothing left to give
Code cracked cause you've become the verb not the object
An autopsy of Mickey Mouse science project
Though we can trade bits of paper for fictions believe me
All of this is all for nought if none of us is free
Grey math and black swans they taunt us all
A joke that rambles on with no punchline at all
Hopeful but deranged
No beauty without strangeness
And all I see is strangeness
You say this is not to scale
I saw something there and the world it was on sale
They go digging in the dirt
Paper claims for earth
All this scripted madness
Like our houses are the perfect killing jars
Remind me why we stayed so long
Pretending all along that none of this could fail
And look how strange we are now
When I was a kid
I stole things I didn't need
Because I believed
This is it
This is now
I'll break out
Shake the ground
I will make the stars above know I'm alive
Block the sun
Split the moon stretch the sky
I'll shove off had enough I'll grow wings
You'll see me towering above the glowering faces
Of the holocene
