béton brut - bent shapes lyrics

Loading...

full moon rise on the mise-en-scene:
empty sports fields let off steam
we drink slow, got nowhere to be
we sulk in the glow of the c-ke machines
a semester’s worth of grand gestures
and still you don’t notice me

i was content to grow older
but she was bolder–
holding onto life like
it could dislocate her shoulder
i don’t know what they told her
the lines that they sold her
are enshrined and left to time in some
guidance counselor’s folder

béton brut
deliver us from our untruth
béton brut
a spite fortress of empty rooms

process crude
austerity measures
struggle for junk space
with unknown pleasures

for all our feeble attempts to widen the breadth
between our nascent selves and certain death
we just circled the drain. didn’t make a dent
already living our lives in past perfect tense

but skirting the lights on deserted streets
nightcrawling blind and falling free
like untethered, heat-seeking teenage lobotomies
we searched for the bright spot
in a sickening century

béton brut
held a promise out to you
béton brut
coming soon: charming ruins

make it new
recast the mold that made us
we were dying for someone
who wouldn’t try to save us
