This Is Grand Lyrics & Tabs by Bound Stems
This Is Grand
guitar chords lyrics
I'm contemplating a play where all the bets are safe: boys cross the street and the sunset glows. I can't compete. There's decorations for streets, the marketplace is abuzz. The laughter's slow. The gravel scrapes up my legs.
Swap my future for days: it costs a quarter to sleep, but I've come up short. It's pure theater at stake, the daily notice is signed, it's a serious joke.
"We look away just as fast as we can, because we've been safe at home." I'm sick, it's just me and the kids, but we read all your notes...
"It'll all work out." Yes: "it'll all work out." I'm hanging upside down, existing by default...
***
O, my soul has been cleaned.
***
Yes ma'am, my soul's been cleaned. I'm with the Agency and you've been blacked out.
Humanity spends thirty thousand years! Humanity spends THIRTY THOUSAND YEARS this way!
It's for my new career: hail to my new career! Train for my new career!
We look away just as fast as we can--
