Buckle Up
when all the turns are tabled
I`ve lost count of the ways we`re screwed
the dollar`s dirt the ruble`s rubble
on the future I`m starting to brood
let`s road trip `round this empire
a drive-through of decline
trust our luck to a fossil fuel junk
leave these obscene livestream signs
in my arms on the precipice
a beautiful place to kiss
if you believe in transcendence
there`s still a road to bliss
ooohhooo
buckle up!
mosey by the zombie money market
moves and counter moves
hold onto your wallet darling
some of these curves ain`t smooth
scatter kindness from the window
feel the rain on your face
feed our dreams to this old machine
runs on love just as we do
in my arms on the precipice
a beautiful place to kiss
if you believe in transcendence
there`s still a road to bliss
ooohhooo
buckle up!
in my arms on the precipice
a beautiful place to kiss
if you believe in transcendence
there`s still a road to bliss
ooohhooo
buckle up!
