Plastic Wings (Remix)

from DOG CANUTE by Dog Canute

lyrics

No hope with plastic wings
Must fight the piston ring
Too fast for me to follow
Shallow, empty, oh so hollow
See I’m standing still
It seems I’m hardly moving
All around there’s chaos
But don’t you find it soothing?
I live to a different beat
A one that’s slow and steady
You think I drag my feet
But I’m just not ready

(See I just can’t play
Your self destructive games
And the way you push your
(Speed addicted aimsI’d rather bathe in dirt
Than wallow in pretension
Or tick another box
(To grab your sad attention)

See I’m standing still
To you I’m hardly moving
While all around is chaos
Don’t you find it soothing!
And it makes me sick
To think we’re all the same
When all your dreams and schemes
Are sodden in self gain

Your pleasures are pathetic
A path that shuns all ethics
Without a fix we flap
(Without a teat we’re trapped)
You see I just can’t play
Your self destructive games
And the way you push your
(Speed addicted aims)

No hope with plastic wings
Must fight the piston ring
Too fast for me to follow
Shallow empty, so hollow
Your pleasures are pathetic
A path that shuns all ethics
(Without a fix we flap
Without a teat we’re trapped)
