Cause-Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You come in, check my time
You've got fornication crimes
I've seen your hope on television
Where we've been, we were not were
They've got tricycles in skirts
This is a mouth that needs religion
And they all want to love the cause
'Cause they all need to be the cause
They all want to fuck the cause
So take me down, down through this
Kill the common law that missed
This is the blood I love to share
Little pistols and companion halls
Desperation tentacles
I've been alone since '89
We've got a menstruating disguise
They know three completes the five
This is a church that should believe
And they all want to free the cause
'Cause they all need to dream a cause
They all need to be a cause
You've got all and it's
Pretty good but I
Seem to be in disbelief
You come in, check my time
You've got fornication crimes
I've seen your death on television
Cue immortal child like times
Separation is divine
Here is a strike beneath your knees
And they all want to love the cause
'Cause they all need to be the cause
They all want to fuck the cause
Take me down, down through this
Kill the white within the bliss
Here is a waiting room
That wants to save your life
And they all want to love the cause
They all need to be the cause
They all want to dream a cause
They all need to fuck the cause
