Official Release – The Hikikomori Pact – The Questions(-0) – Cliff’s Note – Single

Release Notes:

All Composition, Arrangement, Instruments, and Vocal Performances by Jeremiah A. Boothe.

Lyrics:

Verse:

futility martyr, bulldozing water
fighting back against the tide
pushing moisture down the beach
cries afoul a searing screech
bloody eyes talons and beaks
No, this isn’t metaphor
terrorizer out of reach
duck and roll it might beseech you
seeing red won’t get you far
you feel the shame building up
but you’re not to blame
just too scared to intervene

Chorus:

Smash the plate to make it clean
transparently embrace the means
share the meme to gain more streams
broken glass won’t lose it’s gleam

Verse:

Civility bartered, socially slaughtered
drag us back to tow the line
fish for status in the mob
wrench the hook from your next catch
watch them flounder and resist
eyes reflecting(aglow with) mal-intent

Chorus:

Smash the plate to make it clean
transparently embrace the means
share the meme to gain more streams
broken glass won’t lose it’s gleam

Bridge:

Coin a phrase presumed as true
Type bold letters into view
You’ll make mistakes you can’t avoid
A plethora, of wasted time
Ticking toward, a final line
Forsaken, into the void

Chorus:

Smash the plate to make it clean
transparently embrace the means
share the meme to gain more streams
broken glass won’t lose it’s gleam
