lyrics

layered in drugs and self-deception
maybe your heart suffered brief recollection
“xanax and chill,” spendin' days in heaven
white whitewash our woes, pretend it’s
never endin’

cadillac prozac, drinks, and the lies,
mistake the day for the night sky
mistake “me” for “you and i”
won’t fool me again, i’ll pull the wool from my eyes

on and on
scylla cannot stop -
on and on and on (on and on together)
cyclops cannot stop (on and on together)
on and on -
i’ll come back to where you are
i’ll come back to, where you are

(on and on together)
(on and on together)
