1. i remember the first time i saw someone lying on the cold street
    i thought: “i can’t just walk past here, this can’t just be true”
    but i learned by example to just keep moving my feet
    it’s amazing the things that we all learn to do

    so we’re led by denial, like lambs to the slaughter
    serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water
    and the old farm road’s a four-lane that leads to the mall
    and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall
