I Don't Wanna Die in Minnesota (Part II) Lyrics

Waking up is such a strain again, I know, I hear you

And incoherent thoughts replaced by stale monotony

Drift away from this world

No white dove, albatross steers you

What we need are all units

To plebiscite and end this shit

Sugar Plants and aeroplanes

A specula and shades of grey

A playwright and a golden fleece

The only hope immanent peace

I don't wanna die in Minnesota

All liberties lost and the walls move in closer

"When I need you to jump I'll give you the order!"

Dead diaries day to day

For how long do I stay?

I'm afraid to spend my life down in Minnesota

Push the button, swipe your face again

All features faded

A catabolic primordial state

Another casualty

Papier-mâché platoons required

Cover your tracks with funeral pyres

You could be that one unit

To self-destruct and end this shit

Pocket boroughs and monkey frames

Broken flowers and decayed graves

A soiled cubicle and mise-en-scene

An orange sucked no chance to wean

I don't wanna die in Minnesota

All liberties lost and the walls move in closer

"When I need you to jump I'll give you the order!"

Dead diaries day to day

For how long do I stay?

I'm afraid I'll waste my life down in Minnesota

Everything's eventual

Everything's a compromise

All is asked, contextualise

Don't destroy or diminish

Polemicist or activist

Delusional illusionist, tick, tick belie

From nothing to a cyst

I'm afraid I'll live my life down in Minnesota

I'll live it for today, with the time ticking away

Let my soul slip away down in Minnesota
