That desperate mother's tone you adopt When you've sat too long to Entertain a vagabond and your skeptic barring insight Falls through my stomach like a stone A mixture of systems in the world and in our head was an emulsion dissolving into our fragile stock and vicious protraction So nature without violence is a cruel joke Born of an early hand from a woman My lonely nights cut me deeply How many times I've forgotten The warmest feelings on tap It gives weight To living a weightless life Nobody's voice was ever louder for a lesson worth a **** And parental omnipotence switches off With the coldest question you've ever known So behavior loses reinforcement and the mind loses any sense of direction Tasked across a massive field of senseless conception
