The Upside Down

from Awful, Pompous, & Artificial by Bomethius

/

lyrics

A Fertile Crescent of anxiety
Abusive tendencies
You call this theology?
Well it used to be part of me

In the upside down
There’s no right
That they can’t wrong

In the upside down
There’s no right
That they can’t wrong
And there’s no end in sight
So long as the rules are applied

We’re all so oblivious
To the little things that are killing us
Keeping us small and indebted
Caged and abandoned

Cut off and rejected I’ve been cloven in two
But wasn’t that news to you?
Well that’s vulnerability
She’ll say, “What do you want from me?”

To not be so oblivious
To the bigger things that are killing us
Keeping us small and indebted
Caged and abandoned

In the upside down
There’s no right
They can’t wrong

In the upside down
There’s no right
They can’t wrong
And there’s no end in sight
As long as the rules are applied
