In This Way Lyrics

Carry on, highways in high-waisted pants, wasted
Hi, made it back to where I could make blanket statements
Merry—happy holidays!
In my day, we tried to take the piss with the Perrier
Give it a fair shake
Carry on, marionettes, get your lines straight

In this way, we move just like an industry
Indiscreet as a seething snake, and in this way
The symbol keeps its shape

Like rigid clay in viscous fluid
In this way, there's nothing to it
Humanely savage through and through
The shadow saves his place

So we were drawn to worlds beyond the moon
At light speed slipping through a wormhole towards infinite doom
Are you intending to receive what I am sending through?
The cosmos upon wavelengths blue and red
I'll include a plain text too

In this way, we struggle to communicate, confuse, degrade Humiliate until we drift away like memories of shame into the night
But we manipulate our light, or "lie" and manufacture fate
To fight flames as mandated by this way of life
So we have burned through two weeks worth of perfume
But now, the peach trees are in bloom
You're sorry? Well, I'm sorry too
But I have nothing to disprove, no clever twists I let slip through
The cracks in the walls of your extra room
So tell me, who's overbefriending who?

In this way, our minds were locked together
So that at the proper time
We'd be drawn to cuckoo crackers
In this way, we died to all our friends
"No" never meant "forever", and "now's just not the time"
For those who live life backwards, in this way, we lied
