Red Tape Lyrics

If you walk away you'll bury me
I would climb into a hole
Should I build a private cemetery?
There should be no elaborate ceremony
Should I rise above it all
Did you know what to expect of me?
I have carved my own headstone

You could spare me temporarily
I won't be around that long
Though opinions tend to vary
(You might be wrong)

Open-ended, more than ready
Holding onto my regrets
Though I tend to have that tendency
But the hole is not filled yet
Information kills
The red tape highwire
Systemated thrills

Our plate is overfilled
Screwed loose until it leaks
Life begins to spill
Passing through the fields
Of distant memories
It's all just a dream

Your conviction's slow but steady
Is my eviction notice ready?
My conviction's slow but steady
Is your eviction notice ready?

Your conviction's slow but steady
Is my eviction notice ready?
My conviction's slow but steady
Is your eviction notice ready?
