Out To Pasture -

Like a worm, boring through

Cinders and rock and ash — I think I need a broom

To sweep away the day

Cleanse us of the shame we’re in — I’m in

Like a stray, with the mange

Worms and lice and matted — I think I need to bathe

To wash away the day

Cleanse us of the palate, rid me of the taste

You keep leading me

You keep driving me

You keep pushing me

Out to pasture to graze

Can’t keep strangling

Can’t keep ignoring me

Can’t keep choking me

Climbing a clocktower

You keep telling us

You keep shoving us

You keep forcing us

Out to pasture to graze

You stopped listening

You stopped listening

You stopped hearing me

So I’m loading my gun

Like a bum, sifting through

Dumpsters and trash and garbage — think I need some food

I’ve starved away all day

Cleanse us of the hunger we’re in — I’m in

Like a snake, sliding through

Sand and dirt and desert — think I need a tomb

To blacken out the day

Vell me from the sunlight, keep me in place

You keep leading me

You keep driving me

You keep pushing me

Out to pasture to graze

Can’t keep strangling

Can’t keep ignoring me

Can’t keep choking me

Climbing a clocktower

You keep telling us

You keep shoving us

You keep forcing us

Out to pasture to graze

You stopped listening

You stopped listening

You stopped hearing me

So I’m loading my gun

It seems to me

There are so many things they don’t want to share

Now doesn’t that seem strange?

It seems to me

It’s all for one but doesn’t it seem strange

When the one’s for none?

Not you, not me, no one

And doesn’t it seem strange that we don’t know a thing?

Doesn’t it feel the same as the cattle out to graze?

Don’t you think its strange that we can’t find our way?

Don’t you feel the same?

Doesn’t it seem strange that we don’t know a thing?

Doesn’t it feel the same as the cattle out to graze?

Don’t you think its strange that we can’t find our way?

Don’t you feel the same?

You keep leading me

You keep driving me

You keep pushing me

Out to pasture to graze

Can’t keep strangling

Can’t keep ignoring me

Can’t keep choking me

Climbing a clocktower

You keep telling us

You keep shoving us

You keep forcing us

Out to pasture to graze

You stopped listening

You stopped listening

You stopped hearing me

So I’m loading my gun
