mindface lyrics

beam
words & music: s. graham

karen lights a candle holds it
upright towards the sky then blows it out
reads a magic message from herself
can't remember what it's about

blames her mother blames her father
for her lack of faith
in life and love and god and such
once said she wants to rule the world
doesn't really care that much

randall writes a scandal rolls it
uptight before his mind can slap his hand
best he keep that magic message high above the candle moon
then drop its weathered prophecy three steps before the end

he's hoping that he'll be remembered among the righteous of his schemes
to commemorate himself he sips a teardrop of his dreams
how permanent's a whisper to initials on a tree
what proof is there beyond a stare that anyone can see

and we make believe that our thoughts must be mistakes
and we avoid ourselves no matter what it takes
when you feel something; beam or an oracle

toss me through the sky and I will
dig beneath a cloud and then scream aloud
"seems to be our world is buried right below another world
or could it be they're both the same but one is just too proud."

be it better for the whisper. be it better for the scream
but we'd better light the candle; place the moon back on its beam
and is that question enough to make you blush
don't I really care that much?
