Firecracker
Voxtrot Lyrics

I had a lust. I had a firecracker
I was filled with desire and energy

I had a love for the sound of this world
I was enamored with the noises and vibrations of existence

I'm still in love its just a stab at laughter
Though I still adore the world, it's become a bit comical and ironic

It?s just a mark of the people we are
This perception is simply a reflection of the human condition

But don?t be daft no it?s just a monkey business
Don't be foolish, it's all just a meaningless game

They?re running signs no remainders of sins
There are symbols and signals, but no evidence of wrongdoing

We dealing abstract no pain and no deliverance.
We're handling abstractions with no real impact or relief

This is a punch I'm not punching up against
This observation is not a criticism or attack

Oh, Its all just mirrors laugh and smoke
Everything is an illusion or distraction

We are living in some tiny joke
Our existence is absurd and insignificant

And I'm here to show my love, ambition, dedication out to
Despite this, I want to express my affection, motivation, and commitment

Kick the wall smash the lights, ricochets burning up Firecracker
Venting frustration and destructive energy like a firecracker

I will not complain at all
I won't whine or lament

I will never be tricked by you.
I won't be fooled, deceived, or manipulated

I never thought that I would be this ugly
I didn't imagine that I would be so unappealing or unpleasant

I never thought I would be biting that hand
I never expected to rebel against something that sustained me

Defeats the math, this spits the seeds of money
This defies logic and generates wealth

I'm just a shell, I'm a sensitive man
I'm empty and fragile, even though I'm male

We make a choice to unfold a tiny secret
We opt to reveal a small truth

Put it in lights for the grunt of this place
Illuminate it for the masses

Is it the same thing to write it as to think it?
Is translating an idea into language identical to conceiving it?

I'm chopping noses just to ruin my face.
I'm mutilating myself for no reason

Break down on the record company
I'm having a crisis with the music industry

Did you turn you back on me? Or did I turn myself against myself?
Are you rejecting me or am I sabotaging myself?

I'm still in love I set the love in motion
Despite all this, I'm still in love and responsible for starting it

I stare at love with the future we planned
I gaze at love and imagine the future we envisioned

Tell me you feel, this ain't complete emotion
Assure me that you experience the same intensity, and that it's not superficial

I'm still in love with you baby I am
I'm still deeply in love with you
