lyrics

When I was little
Ultima IV taught me
one of the eight virtues
is humility.
I don't think I understood the meaning of humility.

Tori Amos told me
That for 15 minutes a day
She was totally honest with herself
Even though it hurt like hell
Well, Tori, whatever I thought you meant,
I've been doing it 15 hours a day
I'm keeping busy, I'm in the loop

I keep it real, I keep it raw
If I never rise, how can I fall?
Became an autodidact of automalediction
As if the price of absolution is mere admission


(Relinquish the anguish) It's part of me
(Relinquish the anguish) It's my favorite part
(Relinquish the anguish) Where would i be
Without self-flagellating corrupted honesty

Relinquish the anguish
Give in to fantasy
You're deluded, dying from your death grip
On reality
You think you'll win a prize,
O miser of misery?
You think you live in victory,
Unimpeachable killjoy
With a six foot radius?
Well you don't get to win,
I decree it
You must give in
To love
