Mutes - Overfed Lyrics

I earned my birth rights as time allowed
Swallowed my purpose just to spit it out
The young are dying so much older now
I'm losing sympathy and common ground

Fearing lying gets you nowhere
Fawning over every rotting remain
Fear of my salvation
Dislocation. Every lifetime the same
I'm saving my compassion
For a time when I've got nothing to say
If lying gets me nowhere
Pull me under, peel this distance away

So sheltered from the cause of my concern
I'd renegotiate all lessons learnt
But the finer point is that you should have turned out
More like what we paid for
