Lyrics John the Determinist - Jeremy Messersmith

John the Determinist

Polished up and standing in a row
Wind up the gears, watch them go
People made of spring and sparks
Humming with electric hearts
Hoping for a ghost inside the shell
But if it’s there it’s hidden well
All we are is ticks and tocks
Seconds in a pocket watch
Oh you silly things
I’ve got you figured out
Oh you silly things
I’ve got you figured out
Walking on a January lake
I feel the ice around me break
One more ripple in the pond
Stretches out until it’s calm
Oh you silly things
I’ve got you figured out
Oh you silly things
I’ve got you figured out
