The Beigeness |
| Who’s bad? |
| Said the the kiddy in the Jacko hat |
| To the kiddy in the Rooney shirt |
| Dragging back |
| The curtains in the room in her daddy’s flat |
| A young girl heard the truth in an alley-cat |
| Howling on the roof next door |
| Imagine that |
| All your idols were just like you |
| Nothing’s beyond you |
| Do what you want to do if you feel that it wants you to |
| Look |
| True never meant nothing more than it means right now |
| When everything’s fake |
| But you in your deepest reaches keeping secrets |
| Know what it takes to make a meaning means something |
| I’m moving through a space that some can’t see |
| I know this space exists |
| So do you if your heart beats the oldest groove |
| Life is huge but we have shrunk it |
| We’ve made it small |
| We used to walk tall |
| But who cares, right? |
| We’re having a ball |
| Them things you don’t show, I can see |
| Them things you don’t say, speak to me |
| Them things you hide ain’t hiding |
| No firm ground but we ain’t sliding |
| Them things that haunt you, let them be |
| That thing you weep for, leave it |
| All life is forwards, you will see |
| It needs you to need it |
| Go ahead, keep it in ‘til it withers you |
| Move fast, don’t stop, you got things to do |
| Tell yourself, it’s them man it isn’t you |
| Nod your head and believe that until it’s true |
| You can tell it not to show its face |
| When you are trying to hold your space |
| But it’s in you deep in your sinews |
| And it comes out on the coldest days |
| See the kid with the memory he can’t shake |
| See the man with the lover on his mind |
| See the lady with the guilt and the heartache |
| See the woman trying to battle with time |
| See the man with the blood on his hands |
| See the girl with her hands on her hips |
| Everybody say nothing. |
| Stay bland |
| If you don’t show it then it don’t exist |
| Right? |
| Them things you don’t show, I can see |
| Them things you don’t say, speak to me |
| Them things you hide ain’t hiding |
| No firm ground but we ain’t sliding |
| Them things that haunt you, let them be |
| That thing you weep for, leave it |
| All life is forwards, you will see |
| It’s yours when you’re ready to receive it |
| You’re so focused on finding the differences |
| You ignore the bonds that bind us |
| Got my hand on my heart when the rhythm hits |
| It’s looking for us but can’t find us |
| In the valley of vanity, viciousness |
| Full schedules and empty containers |
| We’re kissing the coshes that cripple us |
| Enjoying the Beigeness |
| Do it your way and they’ll find you ridiculous |
| Pick apart your behavior |
| Their scorn ignites what inhibits us |
| And then we hate ourselves |
| And our fear pickles us |
| Sitting in jars ‘cause it’s safer |
| Some of us are happy to live with it |
| But some of us know it’s against our nature |
| Them things you don’t show, I can see |
| Them things you don’t say, speak to me |
| Them things you hide ain’t hiding |
| No firm ground but we ain’t sliding |
| Them things that haunt you, let them be |
| That thing you weep for, leave it |
| All life is forwards, you will see |
| It’s yours when you’re ready to receive it |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
| All life is forwards you will see |
