Wanderlust and Temporary Toads

from Apostatize! by Brooks Strause

/

lyrics

Mayflies in May. The fledglings pray today's the day they'll fly away. Wanderlust take me if you must. Rising sun let my work be done. June bugs in June blot out the moon. The insects croon, "It happens soon." Wanderlust take me if you must. Rising sun let my work be done. Temporary toads pave grudge-holding roads. Try to stay put and be flattened underfoot. Oh no! Returned gift from God spoiled by the spared rod. Try to do right and be a victim of the night. Oh no! Prayers gone up in smoke. Hope until you choke. Try and try and try and be rewarded when you die. Oh no! Temporary toads pave grudge-holding roads. Try to stay put and be flattened underfoot. Kill yourself with kindness. You don't need forgiveness.
