Descartes Lyrics by SPRINTS
Vanity is the curse of culture
A cyanide for the soul
Tip the tightrope delicately around ego
Don’t let either side take hold
What is it to have artistic credibility
For am I not just a man?
I seek to take aim at commentary
I speak so therefore I understand
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
How do you heal a tortured heart?
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
We have love and we have art
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
How do you heal a tortured heart?
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
We have love and we have art
I count the dead leaves on the trees
I count the seconds between my breath
All’s fair in love and war
But what if I’ve nothing more than war left?
Take my sanity
Take my sanctimony
Call me pious, call this holy matrimony
Call this anything you want from me
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
How do you heal a tortured heart?
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
We have love and we have art
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
How do you heal a tortured heart?
Descartes, descartes, discord and discard
We have love and we have art
Disillusion, hate, anxiety
Pleasure, pain, ***
Tell me lord, how can I be
Better than I was born to be?
Disillusion, hate, anxiety
Pleasure, pain, ***
Tell me lord, how can I be
Better than I was born to be?
Disillusion, hate, anxiety
Pleasure, pain, ***
Tell me lord, how can I be
Better than I was born to be?
Vanity is the curse of culture
Ignorance becomes the death of us
Privilege without acknowledgement is ***
The world is burning right in front of us
