lyrics

In a deceptive turn of events that would last me into this very grave. Interruptions come as we sit and he’s crowding his words with his lies.
My last chance to be runner up has been taken by you.
There is no stance to guide you.

Amendments thrown to go recover the ballot.
Now it seems the count is minutes away.
Since all you’ve done is taken states laws for granted.
I’ll be sure to take your life.
Now pause in an act to prevent and devert my plans. sir…
Understand why I can’t win.
Because of states laws we’re at it again.
To block all attempts at power again.
(The morning has come. It's aiming its gun.
It's digging a hole we believe must be dug.)

New Jersey, where laws can't track us down for this next morning.
Don't be losing sleep.
Take the lead, I'll stand here just to watch you fall back to the ground.
(And your head will collide, I'll approach right before...)

I would survive once yet again to reprimand the conscience who try to pretend.
it seems that all of my political rivals have vanished into the smoke that fills the air.
You would fall and die.
(And I will come to realize. The world is wide for you and I. For you and I the world is wide.)

Delicious math rock featuring artful and catchy melodic writing, underpinned by intensely complex instrumental work. The emo influence in TTNG's past works has been toned down in favor of delicate pop songwriting, and, oh boy, it does it for me. Andy Bond
