Melons Rising Lyrics

mercy monster grant your doom

encase your brain in an airtight tomb
forget that the tree bears good fruit to eat

chop it down and burn it for temporary heat

I'm not putting you down, don't get me wrong

I realize the number of trips other than the one I'm on

but I demand the same and I most surely condone

that you all realize it and leave me alone
glowing members of the radiant mush

squeeze down hard and feel the bones crush

mechanical children in a metal town

open your eyes and watch the rats drown

there's never been a book of rules, and those

that say there is are fools, the rain falls
softly on the barren trees

across the ocean blows a little breeze

soon my factory's gonna shut down

I'll go back to the accepting ground

but until that day this walking mire

to greater heights will aspire
