Tigers in the Tank - Sour Apples Lyrics

Some days the sun comes up
Faster than it should
Can't see the hurry does us any good
Some nights the air gets tight
Flowing through my lungs
One more round and I'll be done
This small span we call a day
Will quickly come and go
Sequential cuz we view it so
Binary light and dark
So stark and so unreal
I want to see the spectrum
Of how you feel
So many questions as to how we came to power
The answers turn all the apples sour
I've got so many questions about how we came to power
The answers turn all the apples sour

So let's relinquish all our schemes
Let's abandon conquering
I've been clever to a fault
Enjoyed the ride
But now I'd like to get off

I walk down the street at 5
To go and get my meal
I take off the orange peel
I come home again at 10
So mad and so confused
It's so bad I start to sing the blues
So many questions as to how we came to power
The answers turn all the apples sour
I've got so many questions about how we came to power
The answers turn all the apples sour

I'll relinquish
Won't overthink this
All my schemes were for conquering
I'll relinquish
Won't overthink this
All my schemes
They were clever but to a fault
Enjoyed the ride
But now I'd like to get off

Some people frown all day
And I know it ain't their fault
Can't open up the vault
Where generosity and love have been dismissed
How did it come to this?
I've been clever but to a fault
Enjoyed the ride
But now I'd like to get off
