Lyrics for Song: Would Not Come
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Series [2012]
If I make a lot of tinsel, then people will want to
If I am hardened, no fear of further abandonment
If I am famous, then maybe I'll feel good in this skin
If I am cultured, my words will somehow garner respect
I would throw a party, still it would not come
I would bike, run, swim, and still it would not come
I'd go travelling and still it would not come
I would starve myself and still it would not come
If I am masculine, I will be taken more seriously
If I take a break, it would make me irresponsible, and
If I'm elusive, I will surely be sought after often
If I need assistance, then I must be incapable
I'd be filthy rich and still it would not come
I would seduce them and still it would not come
I would drink Vodka and still it would not come
I'd have an orgasm, still it would not come
If I accumulate knowledge, I'll be impenetrable
If I am aloof, no one will know when they strike a nerve
If I keep my mouth shut, the boat will not have to be rocked
If I am vulnerable, I will be trampled upon
I would go shopping and still it would not come
I'd leave the country and still it would not come
I would scream and rebel, still it would not come
I would stuff my face and still it would not come
I'd be productive and still it would not come
I'd be celebrated, still it would not come
I'd be the hero and still it would not come
I'd renunciate and still it would not come
