Forgive Durden - Cue the Sun lyrics

It starts with a canvas A starchy, blinding white Then comes the flash of illumination And the tools to record the plight So I begin drowning the surface With a swamp of acrylic swirls I'll get it right this time This time it will last Look at the world I've created Watch as it turns like a top From the oceans and tides To the clouds in the sky It's more than you could ever dream To afford It ends with a loose strand And a curious hand Like a boy who stumbles upon His father's gun It's housed in a sock drawer Next to cigarettes and cheap p**n He loads the chamber with one destined shot Father always regrets he left the safety off Look at the world I've created Watch as it turns like a top From the oceans and tides To the clouds in the sky It's more than you could ever dream Look at the world I've created Watch as it turns like a top From the malls and states To the smokestacks and freeways It's much more than you can afford You've wasted this gift On the beauty and science And now my voice won't be ignored I'll pull back the blinds And open all your eyes Let the sun drown you all, all, all
