Two Birds Stoned at Once Lyrics

So, here I am again
Both of my eyes so, open wide and gleaming
Blank stares, with races running only an inch behind

Sit back and watch the pavement get closer as it aims for your face
As it aims for your face
So step back, let me take over
Step back, let me take over

[Chorus]
Can you hear the silhouettes?
The slim and dark figures
Rising like giants out of the shadows
They're crawling out
They're crawling out of our skin

Here I am again
We build ourselves, where monsters used to hide
So step back, let me take over
So step back, let me take over

And we're all whores, some of us just get paid

Oh, how we celebrate the mediocrity
My feelings crawl the walls
They crawl the walls, and finally fall
They finally fall
Like empires and old loves

[Chorus]

(So step back, let me take over.)
Oh, how we celebrate the mediocrity
(So step back, let me take over.)
Oh, how we celebrate the mediocrity
(So step back, let me take over.)
Oh, how we celebrate the mediocrity
(So step back, let me take over.)
