Famine Friends
Thoughts Behind Me

(Chorus)

Thoughts behind me make me see, but they don’t come from me/

thoughts behind me make me see


Look at my hands they are leathery and rough, they can spread and heal with love or let me wield a gun/ let me peel the calousy flesh, expecting me to budge, they bring bits of balance and death to everything I touch/ what makes a man, what makes my essence when I’m gone? The things I’ve left are either precious or detestable by God/ it’s either purposesless and turns to shit, or pertinent and durable and circumvents discernable worthlessness the turns to gold/ and gold is bright and stunning but my foresight is dim, it’s time to study, buddy, we livin’ in war times again/ I’ve tried the honey (honey) but I’m attractin’ more flies with shit, so the more destructive I am, the more fly I get


(Chorus)

Thoughts behind me make me see, but they don’t come from me/

thoughts behind me make me see


I’s feelin’ high off myself, till that hot balloon burst, I got a job to do sir, now watch the future unfold/ I may get warm and cold but my heart is neutral, the good and evil duke it out then enact the Kama Sutra/ you can make a famine? Well, I can make lovely, I can make a sandwich but fact its: I’ll always stay hungry/ lettin’ that chemical circulate, encircled in my world of hate, but my tendency to love is what redeems me at those pearly gates


(Chorus)

Thoughts behind me make me see, but they don’t come from me/

thoughts behind me make me see
