I have the answers to it all It's so complex yet it is so simple I'll try to explain with simple words In layman's terms There is a world inside my mind A universe with you and me inside I think if you I can only imagine that you also think of me That's what it is in layman's terms Though you are infinitely small You are essential for the order of it all If you think this life just wasn't built for you Then make one for yourself and no one else Though it may seem like a cartoon A sense of humor keeps the universe in tune Life is just a joke so learn to laugh with it Ha ha ha ha There is a world inside my mind A universe with you and me inside I think if you I can only imagine that you also think of me That's what it is in layman's terms I'll code the universe from scratch Then you'll apply your cosmic patch We'll share with everyone, no one, and anyone Let's make some apple pie from scratch Bake a delicious, endless batch Enough for everyone, no one, and anyone There is a world inside my mind A universe with you and me inside I think if you I can only imagine that you also think of me That's what it is in layman's terms

Blackhole 04:50
I am wrapped in misery Caught inside your gravity Darkness absorbs all my light Circling the drain in a useless fight I won't go over event horizon It'll all be over But now I've wisened up To your familiar ploy Draw me close enough to destroy me Blackhole that won't let go And I'll die before she'll swallow me whole And I'll scratch, scream, and claw my way out Endure the pain to save my soul You have sucked down any semblance A validation for your existence Force into your assistance Just to take the path of least resistance I won't go over event horizon It'll all be over But now I've wisened up To your familiar ploy Draw me close enough to destroy me Blackhole that won't let go And I'll die before she'll swallow me whole And I'll scratch, scream, and claw my way out Endure the pain to save my soul And one day I'm gonna break free I don't care how long it takes me Escaping from her clutches She destroys everything she touches Blackhole that won't let go And I'll die before she'll swallow me whole And I'll scratch, scream, and claw my way out Endure the pain to save my soul

about

Platypus Egg San Diego, California

Their sound slowly morphed from jarring, and at times uncomfortable to a coherent, vulnerable voice. Fans usually say "You won't get it by just listening to one song. Once you hear 8 or 10, that's when it starts to make sense" ... more
