(20)12 Songtext
von Will Wood and the Tapeworms

Fuck

I was an existential criminal, so innocently cynical
Ignorant as fuck but a proud individual
Originally meant to live a god-damned miracle
Might′ve been metaphysical, but I think it was medical
Testing my hypothesis, never finding a theory

Emulating animals and mental aboriginals
A miserable fuck but a loud Tao mystical
An enemy of ritual traditionally integral to
Biblical originals, but literally pitiful
Too impatient for outpatient
Paging Dr. Leary

Did you lose yourself?
It's always in the last place that you′d check
(I hope you will hear it if you wanna hear it)
I might find myself by retracing my steps, but


I don't remember, well, I forgot myself
I don't remember, I don′t remember 2012
I don′t remember how I forgot myself
I don't remember, I don′t remember 2012
I don't remember 2012
I don′t remember, wow, the whole year's a blur

I think I bought into the comedy and brought a lot of oddity
An odyssey I thought to be considered a commodity
And not until anomaly abolished my monotony
Did I applaud autonomy and modify a lot of me?
I′ll escape this reality, be the next Houdini

Glory be Satori, but it's hallucinatory, and
It's sure to be a story I can tell in purgatory
I said, once I′ve lost it can there be a Mahaprajnaparamita?

Did you lose yourself?
Well, it′s always in the last place that you'd check
I might find myself by retracing my steps

Wow, I don′t remember how I forgot myself
I don't remember, I don′t remember 2012
I don't remember how I forgot myself
I don′t remember, I don't remember 2012
I heard the world would turn to Hell
Compared to that, I'm doing well


I don′t remember how I forgot myself
I don′t remember, I don't remember 2012
I don′t remember how I forgot myself
I don't remember, I don′t remember 2012
I don't remember 2012
I don′t remember 2012
