Buckle Up, Buttercup

Lyrics

Buckle up Buttercup, it’s time we take a ride
To a distant past concealed, why do we run and hide?
Your face is like a mystical connection to another plane
Why do we only feel sorrow or only feel pain?

Where'd you get those fancy sneakers, maybe the Goodwill trash?
Fancy crap is all the rage, tomorrow you’ll throw them back
Your hair is ashen gray, your tattoo’s stretched and faded
Why do you hide your face, is it shame or discontent?

I want to see the real deal
Nothing else to conceal
Follow the path to the end
Fade and chap your confidence

I want to see the real deal
Nothing else to conceal
Maybe you’re hypnotized
By your manufactured lies

Buttercup your soul content, bit off more than you can eschew
To face the deep and wide intersection of your mind
Why seek out sustenance when you fill yourself?
Tell me honey what do you see in the mirror?

Is it subject to your favor or are you ill’n too?
Are you covered with your own roses and a vanilla shake fondue?
Tables of charms and lipstick wash upon the shores
Wallow in your sorrow, you only get one chance

I want to see the real deal
Nothing else to conceal
Maybe you’re hypnotized
By your manufactured lies
