Comfort Over Condition

from Life On Venus by Hello Whirled

/

lyrics

that’s a wrong turn
what’d I say?
you’re never gonna make it if you only go wrong ways
you know it’s damaging
and you’re far removed from king
fast car may travel far
but when it all breaks down you’re a dying star
fading from view
crumpled you
every bad decision a dandelion new

you’ll build yourself up with image and clout
but they’ll leave you alone when the money runs out

you have the world in your hands
but you want to trade it for gold
choosing comfort over condition
is a shit that’s growing so old

faceless and nameless
you swear you’ve got it
a 16-ton weight acting as your shadow
when it hits you you’re not it
your sweet propaganda lures in the crowd
like a young pied piper caroling
at least for a second until they’re bored
and you stop holding hands with Marilyn

where no one knows your name
sell your heart to die
head to Maryland on a train
