The Committee Songtext
von Evolfo

I ran outside to check the mail and fell into a never-ending hole
I found it dark and warm and grabbed the walls to slow my fall but
faster still as time flew by my arms and legs began to stretch out
longer than I′d seen before a letter showed up by my face
with symbols in a jumbled mess, I focused in and then I saw
the words began to rearrange the message now was plain to see
"dear sir, we write to you from the committee for the reevaluation
of morality and consciousness don't change the station.
we accept donations from our patrons on a monthly basis
if you have the time to reconsider we′d appreciate

our systems aim to please
we'll put your mind at ease
think of all you'd be
our members all agree"


I don′t think that I′ll give my hard-earned cash to that organization
just leave me alone I'm dealing with some heavy gravitation
speed of sound approaches now my screams are far above me singing
free my soul and hear me fall and lay waste to a life of clinging
then I saw the bottom coming up at me in red and yellow
diamonds, boxes, mirrored men, a tambourine, and roaring cellos
shouted once again in exclamation, "oh the end is near!"
and worried to myself will anybody truly know me here

"our systems aim to please
we′ll put your mind at ease
think of all you'd be
our members all agree"

the dying and the breaking through, the trying and the making do,
the tedium of getting through, the medium and beautiful,
the up and down or in and out, the lost and found, the thing about
the dying and the breaking through, the trying and the making do
