lyrics

The Importance of Being Ernest Goes to Jail...if you're afraid to bite the hand that feeds you, what are you going to do when it balls itself into a fist aimed at your security? You should try justifying your hopes and dreams--or even your existence--to the insistence of force-backed mass belief! An unexamined life will never withstand such harsh scrutiny; those who have the least are scrutinized the most by those who live a life spent on the rails, waiting for that moment when the train runs off the track. Arguing in the aisles, when it hits a brick wall they run towards the back. You can't be neutral on a moving train (supposedly), but most matters such as this are counter-factuals; in retrospect... [actually, you can be neutral on a moving train--i t's encouraged. You won't be allowed to board if your position is too extreme and you don't have the money to afford a first class ticket.]
Don't tell me what I can or can't do; you'd break your knees walking in my shoes. Keep your anecdotes to yourself--they don't apply to anyone else. No disciplinary aerobics--no critique of my life choices. I'm T.H. Lawrence and I'm laying charges on the track of the train carrying those whose life's spent on the rails, waiting for the moment when the train runs off the track. Arguing in the aisles, when it hits a brick wall they all run towards the back...
