It's always the words we don't think of
that we use later
when it's time to revise.

In your eyes I see truth
in your looks I see lies
it's the things that will trip you up later
when it comes time to do the revise.

We're being screened for the inoculation
the alarm will be sounded at dawn
it's always the words we don't think of
but
it's too late from the moment we're born.
