Nicolas Jaar - The Governor lyrics

Machine: Deicide

It’s simple and numb stuck on automatic
It’s a blind dealer - a wide-eyed addict
We’ve allowed for a wheel of loss and desire
Now there’s no way to put out the fire

Yea we’re all just rollin’ -
High on some junk
Automatic lava, deicide monk
A hall full of kids trying
To deal with their guilt
But the echo of the hall is
Automatically built - and it’s alright
Find yourself and look back no one else will
We’ve created a monster and
It’s ready to build
The young one’s a trigger, with a bad habit
She’s a blind nun, cruelest in static

Yea the past’s just running, high on a stick
Meaning is useless when given to the sick
A hall full of kids automatically
Built so the edge of
The hall is ready to kill you alright
And it’s alright (with you)

Alarm is going off oh can’t you hear
Your eye’s in the wrong
Place reflecting a tear
Go ahead and forget, just give us a smile
Your whole ride is set, on automatic dial
On automatic dial on automatic dial
On automatic dial on automatic dial
On automatic dial on automatic dial
On automatic dial on automatic dial

Alarm is going off oh can’t you hear
Your eye’s in the wrong
Place reflecting a tear
Go ahead and forget, just give us a smile
Your whole ride is set, on automatic dial
Yea we’re all just rolling
The mothers have sunk
All the blood’s hidden in
The Governor’s trunk
They keep you in a hall with all of your ilk
To echo the title of the trunk
That they built: "it’s alright"

And it’s alright (with you)
