[00:00.280]Vita es morte es vita
[00:04.160]Life is death is life
[00:12.470]Found nothing but the feathers and the skull
[00:15.320]On the porch like a present with a bow
[00:17.589]Dinner's in a black earth gutted and uncoupled from the patchwork
[00:20.948]Buried by a seven year cherub in the backyard

[00:34.603]It's tricky when you'd rather rot into the soil as a nutrient
[00:37.762]Than navigate this mortal coil in human skin dig
[00:40.652]The nuances of putrefying jelly
[00:42.482]Hit the levee when those feathers are a cancer in your besty

[01:27.414]The po dragged me from my bedroom
[01:28.714]An embarrassing ordeal involving hospitals and questions
[01:31.423]And the kinda doctors who use words like cognitive and spectrum
[01:34.301]While explaining why you're selfish
[01:35.591]To romanticize our rules
[01:36.861]And watch unruly roots
[01:37.851]Pull you to lucifer
[01:38.660]By your shoes I mean it isn't perfect
[01:41.109]Don't misconstrue the purpose

[02:45.988]Meek until the spirit isn't willing
[02:47.867]While the flesh is still a staple of the labor forcing whistling
[02:50.676]It's roadkill evoking emotion his own totem don't
[02:53.533]That's a reality you evade or grow to own
[02:56.343]Social code broken a hierarchy to gasp at
