Icarus The Owl - Esophagus lyrics

I know they're just words But they are my anchor when I need one I can't grasp the metaphysical Yet my mind speaks in metaphors I know that your body is six feet underground (But somewhere your words Leave and converge) Operator, Operator, we've got a flat line on our hands Call his family but not his sons, he never wants to speak to them Money, money, it's all they ever f**ing cared about Cancer, cancer will take his life but I'll remember him Trails of legacy for my mind to whimsically digest I need someone to tell me rhetoric To convince me that things are different And I constantly chase my tail And they spend their lifetime searching for rainbows Operator, Operator, we've got a flat line on our hands Call his family but not his sons, he never wants to speak to them Money, money, it's all they ever f**ing cared about Cancer, cancer will take his life but I'll remember him Every time I slip up, I think if you did, too How could you do this to a child? Who am I supposed to love? Do I have to pick like cards in a deck? Were we the cards in your hand? Operator, Operator, we've got a flat line on our hands Call his family but not his sons, he never wants to speak to them Money, money, it's all they ever f**ing cared about Cancer, cancer will take his life but I'll remember him I'll remember him (I'll remember him) Chasing shadows everywhere
