I'm not the type to claim that I know.
(Opinions all expire in time.)
Trust that I'll follow tracks in the snow.
(Red and white contrast so well.)
An ugly and disheartening scene.
With spectators deciding what it means.
Hiding somewhere in the trees.
Lurking, unseen.
It's a man, or a beast.
Armed to the teeth, verbally.
It's a man, or a beast.
Armed to the teeth.
Opinions all expire in time.
Tongue tied, double down surprise.
Sweet cries, confirmation bias.
What I see's what I believe.
What you see's all intrigue.
Tongue tied, party "toast" with lies.
There's no prescription for a mind that contends that the truth is up to them.
And that in taking offense, the line drawn in the sand becomes a fence.
Hearts are reeling.
Isn't that appealing?
Tension clearly makes you speak sincerely.
Despite the evidence, it's still not making sense.
Is there an honest source to stop all of this back and forth?
Haunted by the threat of being wrong.
Feeding the monster all along.
Tearing its way through the trees, careless and obscene.
Not a man, it's a beast gritting it's teeth, here to feast!
Tongue tied, double down surprise.
Sweet cries, confirmation bias.
What I see's what I believe.
What you see's all intrigue.
Tongue tied, party "toast" with lies.
Hearts are reeling.
Isn't that appealing?
Tension clearly makes you speak sincerely.
