Tutelary Genius Lyrics

son of a b****
don't sabotage everything that moves forward
I think "if I fail, I would be free of succes and its burdens"
but failure's burdens are heavier
with misery's many friends
once I get up I will do all I can
not to fall on my face again
can you find me a true original
sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance
uncompromising and unconditional
tutelary genius

sound the alarm
agency's calling me out from my slumber
I admit that I'm scared
to bully regret out of burning my daylight
deep in my moment of weakness
I tried to reach out to you
next time you need me for something
just know I've more pressing things to pursue
can you find me a true original
sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance
uncompromising and unconditional
tutelary genius

whilst hunting minatour inside my magic maze
this idle halo spins around my head in petty pace
I fear I've caught myself
between the screen and window pane
take joy from the now
and the things that longing tried to take away
I feel so ashamed
only mind with enough time to wander
it's anchors away, once I'm through
building the ship I'm to sail in
unbind myself from the hamstrings
of yesterday's**** and run
no, I won't stand to be pinning myself
there's more pressing things to be done

can you find me a true original
sentinel satellite, keeper of vigilance
uncompromising and unconditional
tutelary genius
