Cartoon Graveyard - New Standard
текст песни

started with a birthday, and lasted through the next one:
days like dead legs floating while the river runs
if we found meaning
profound, and secure
if we found meaning
how could we be sure?

our conversations
made of two monologues
were soliloquies
that merged if we talked

the chase justified my effort far more than the catch did
but that runaway staging, I just couldn't direct it
so I dissected her meaning
so vague, and fleeting
yeah, her meaning
I had to be sure...

proved to be useless
as a chocolate teapot
I was loosing
her freudian knot

there was a stable arrhythmia
and it brought us together
a subtle murmur
and surely there'll be others
magnetic and reliable

the newspaper lining our cage wasn't worth reading
product of an ignorance that was slowly retreating
so where was the meaning?
subjective, and seceding?
there was no meaning!
what's the sense of it all?

when I've not squandered
the bulk of my youth
and she will find
a new standard of truth?
