The Semantics Of Sermon SONG LYRICS

by

Cursive

Ringtone: Send The Semantics Of Sermon Ringtone to your Cell Phone!

since I wrote this am I the culprit
these useless wisdoms I dispense
at your expense
picture postcards
a three minute essay
some scribbled words to four line verse

meanwhile, we mean well
we cannot escalate or escape this
so let's pretend our little songs are more than songs
more like sermons
attention, attention: that's all we're asking for

our little songs are our little whores
jukebox cupids- and the medium's a trend
the music lends itself to it- to itself
the lyrics bend to make the song

attention, attention:
don't tell me that's all we're writing for
picture postcards
three minute essays
we can never fit in what we want to say.

Ringtone: Send The Semantics Of Sermon Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
