lyrics

pavement grove
asphalt biome
they’re crawling on their hands
but they’re happy to shake
concrete domain
academic pain
nothing to gain
but they’re happy to break

don’t stare
but please watch
they’re climbing that upward mobility
even if they know it’s out of futility

they are today’s angels
descending from towers
plastic halos
and paper wings
today’s angels
equally high
bluer than sky
they’re beautiful things

skin tight
teeth clenched like a fury of a thousand injured horses
hope lost
DIY or die at any useless cost
whatever the cost may be

army of some
with sketch pads, not guns
instead of building empire, they seek to observe
braving the wind
cracking the nerve
held up on a pedestal
it’s what they deserve
