The Faint Lyrics

"Syntax Lies" lyrics


understand,
i don't care if i meet you
and you don't care if we meet
it's just conversation
we're not so compatible
but at least we know
and we don't care.

(chorus) syntax lies
no difference in art and life
it's just what we say
and the order the words go (the order the words go!)
it's time we needed an aggravist
one that wouldn't make us laugh
and has severed how we used to speak.
concepts of language around his waist
but more dimensionally versed
he has severed how we used to speak.

call it backwards
overlapping
ultra modern
more slowly please
they mistook it for religion
but the truth unfolds
we devo
without knowing
same language equals same story
the new version is confusing
sharp tongue
glass blood

grammar: its comedic
we're corrected
we need a stoplight division to the next calender.. year!

it's time we needed an aggravist
one that wouldn't make us laugh
but has severed how we used to speak.
concepts of language around his waist
but more dimensionally versed
he has severed how we used to speak.

i understand,
it's just conversation
but it eliminates how i really feel...
