Messy Messianic

bag the nickels

A man was being followed
He grinned from ear to ear
From one step to another
He appeared to disappear

We never saw his photograph
We never knew his name
We only heard his story
And we thought let’s do the same

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear
We’ll gladly take you with us
Just as long as we are here

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear
Why wait when every minute
More and more of us are here
 
The tethers are invisible
They keep you feeling tense
Let’s test the legal limits
Of your voluntary fence

There’s nothing new in heaven
There’s nothing new on earth
Except new ways of cashing in
On what a life is worth

They fill you where you should be hollow
They’ve packaged feeling sad
They have an app for appetites
You never knew you had

They think your heart has hardened
They know you’re often bored
You tend a paywalled garden
For imaginary lords

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear
And when you find us finally
You’ll never know we’re here

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear
Instead of feeling happy
Why not feel a little weird?

You wanted to be noticed
You wanted to be seen
And now you hold the fascination
Of a vast machine

We see you turn transparent
We see you turning clear
We see you as you really are
Just as you disappear

A man was being followed
Or maybe not a man
They call you what they want to
When you opt out of the plan

You’ll hear what you’ve been missing
You’ll feel much less alone
You’ll find a soul-shaped object
Where you used to have a phone

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear.
We’re playing in the shadows
Where a new light has appeared

C’mon, let’s disappear
C’mon, let’s disappear
C'mon, let's disappear
C'mon, let's disappear
