Dance Gavin Dance : Acceptance Speech
Lyrics
1. JESUS H. MACY
What are we to ever do, my mind is lead and you're a wall
The lions den of I'm akin, to sleeping late and eating wrong
Well If I ever got it straight, I think id bend at every pause
The action leaking out my face, from breathing paint to missing calls
Well I'm the sugar-coated tooth, and I have come to ruin your mood
While staring at the frozen foot, I realized I'm stupid too
Well Farming isn't fun at all, and I will build a thousand malls
And eat the food courts flesh, from every single city
Before you ask what you think you want to know
Take a look at my face and how far you think I'll go
Because I've had it up to here for the 37th time this year
And I've kept it bottled down
But not this time, not here
Cause I'm fucking on one
Shave it out, you need a break from hair
Coming out bald, I'm the eagle in the air
With the big ass braids and the folding chair
Just shave it out, you need a break from hair
I feel the marrow in my bones
Heart is beating, heavy breathing
Can't stop it when I'm in my zone
Blood is colder It's taking over
Set it up, cover the plans, record everyone, make demands
Positional strategy, split was disastrous, flanking the siege
You've seen me arrive
Shed my disguise I thought you wanted to, I thought you wanted to
Keep it alive
Fight to survive I thought you wanted to I thought you wanted to
Bit by bit I recover from this
Cleanse my palette and validate my gifts
Little by little, remove myself from the middle
Stick to the man till they bones is brittle, aware?
2. THE ROBOT WITH HUMAN HAIR PT. 4
Back to sloth and sleeping binges
Self defeating outburst, cringes
Thoughts get rusty, creaky hinges
Lost that box of clean syringes
Stuck to the ceiling I'm in view
Can't shake the notion I'm becoming you
The look from above same as below
Sign up for high, free dose of low
The Jig is up, I'm the one
Manipulate the ones I love
Light my path, reveal the beacon
Where's my balance
Can't stop thinking
Can't stop thinking
Can't stop thinking
Stop
I wear my soul on my sleeve at night
(Searching for substance)
I lose control of my autonomic mind
(Waiting for the impulse)
And I saw the rage burning in your eyes
(Your thoughts intangible)
Follow me down, we'll get paralyzed
(Around the winding road)
Hang on, hang on
Don't lose composure now
Hang on hang on
Feed into the miracle
Don't be fucking cynical
Hang on, hang on
Don't lose composure now
Hang on hang on
Girl don't be so difficult
Come here let's get physical
Sinus pressure getting older
I like weight upon my shoulders
Here I live inside this cd
Tell your friends he's super creepy
Weirded out a simple human
Confused by words arrange and move them
Into spaces no apparent meaning
Eat this song your ears are greedy
Cut out this conversation, desperation, now
Losing admiration, holding onto accidents
(I can turn it off again, I can smile on a whim)
What have I done, what have I done?
(I can make believe in him, the function in the algorithm)
That calls for your attention?
(I can turn it off again, I can smile on a whim)
What have I done, what have I done?
(I can make believe in him, the function in the algorithm)
That keeps you hanging on?
I wear my soul on my sleeve at night
(Searching for substance)
I lose control of my autonomic mind
(Waiting for the impulse)
And I saw the rage burning in your eyes
(Your thoughts intangible)
Follow me down, we'll get paralyzed
(Around the winding road)
Hang on, hang on
Don't lose composure now
Hang on hang on
Feed into the miracle
Don't be fucking cynical
Hang on, hang on
Don't lose composure now
Hang on hang on
Girl don't be so difficult
Come here let's get physical
3. ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
Who drains the blood from my head I do, I do
Who comes through with the meds I do, I do
Blackened seeds you're gonna needs these, freeze
The common ancestor
The pressure of industry
Who sleeps in the grease crease
Wax and trails of mutual deceit
I heard that growth was gettin weak
Who taps the line , records my mind,
Twisted agenda, align my spine
Whose got the steeples, the people and scepters,
the rocks on the beaches, the angles the vectors.
Who drains the blood from my head I do, I do
And who accepts me as I am I do, I do
Relationships are a tool that can fuel the facade over my disguise
Fulfill my ego I do what I do with unrelenting compromise
When it's all on the table you know I'll be able to duck, dodge and run and hide
got a good education in disinformation, adept at constructing lies.
The crack on the staircase, I smoked out of boredom
My kitchen is filled with meat and chloroform
Squirming colors metastasize
Upon viewing the world the fetus eats its own eyes
And I will get it all on my own
And I will get it all on my own
Acting the fiction and, signing the right away,
Transistor electrocute, wiping the order away.
Awkward offensive hold, perfectly natural
They can't speak bout my brand, because I'm dead and white
I'm the one I'm the one with my hands around the gun
I am not afraid
I am not afraid
So what I'll die alone all right
So what I'll die alone all right
Woke up in a new Bugatti
Then I burned it
Woke up next to Jodi Arias
She my hood bitch
Double it down on all the clowns trying to remake DBM
Man you crazy
We started this sound from Sac Town
Bitch you best be home by 10
Curfew bitch
4. CARVE
This is my brand, and I charge you the fee
Bathing in the glory, I love my story
I jumped inside the blender, now drink me
Bathing in the glory, I love my story
Rage against the reflection
Bathing in the glory, I love my story
Buy this shit stained product infection
Bathing in the glory, I love my story
Wax and wane, and wax wane, I wanna soak up the glory
Wax and wane, and wax wane, I wanna soak up the glory
Yeah turn on my right hand (that's my trope)
Yeah turn on my right hand (that's my trope)
You know the price ain't right
And if I spin this hype, then I'm award winning actor man
Yeah turn on my right hand
Push with your clout, pull the mud out your mouth man
I'm only christening what's mine
You come back once and then the second time for blood
I'm terribly wasted
You're coming to pieces
Lets get fucking naked
And fall off the deep end
That's my trope, and my sleight of hand
I'm about to predict the future
Any credit given will be swept under the rug
Or reduced to the fine print
I'm only silent when you're asking questions
The simple answer is "no I wasn't present"
All I see is an ocean of replicas
All I see in their eyes is my reflection
The world's a stage and I'ma wax and wane
Like moon till their lit like the sun
The world's a bitch and I manipulate it
You'll believe every word I say
Yeah turn on my right hand (that's my trope)
Yeah turn on my right hand (that's my trope)
You know the price ain't right, and if I spin this hype
Then I'm award winning actor man
Yeah turn on my right hand
Push with your clout, pull the mud out your mouth man
I'm only christening what's mine
You come back once and then the second time for blood
I'm terribly wasted
You're coming to pieces
Lets get fucking naked
And fall off the deep end
5. DOOM & GLOOM
I'll have to leave just as soon as the colors begin to fade
I'll run away before lying to you becomes natural
What I had in mind was
What you held against me
Give me the keys and I'll drive you insane
Take apart your brain if you ever loved me
Never satisfied
Or just never coming back
(Stay away from me)
No, prep him for the ghost
Let him see the ghost
(Stay away from me)
Let it in and come to terms with what would have, could have been
(Stay away from me)
Prep him for the weight
Let him see the fate
(Stay away from me)
Fracturing relationships
And isolation
Do you wanna get mad about.. All your feelings won't change the world
Do you wanna get mad about.. Saying nothing, being nothing, be with someone else
I'll have to leave just as soon as the colors begin to fade
I'll run away before lying to you becomes natural
What I had in mind was
What you held against me
Give me the keys and I'll drive you insane
Take apart your brain if you ever loved me
Never satisfied
Or just never coming back
(Stay away from me)
No, prep him for the ghost
Let him see the ghost
(Stay away from me)
Let it in and come to terms with what would have, could have been
(Stay away from me)
Prep him for the weight
Let him see the fate
(Stay away from me)
Fracturing relationships
And isolation
Before you decide that this is dated
Take me out of the equation
What was it that you most hated?
All the time that you spent waiting
When the stomach becomes the mouth and its spewing all its garbage out
To think before speaking would prevent you from the point your making
When the stomach becomes the mouth and its spewing all its garbage out
To think before speaking would prevent you from the point your making
The slew of trails towards destiny, the perfect day to quit
The slew of trails in reverie, bite my crooked shape
6. STRAWBERRY WISHER PT. 3
I was raised to believe
All, all that I read
Fall in line with me
It's all, all that I see
Got a box of lies
Gonna get you high with the words of wisdom that you need to hear
Got a big ass book
And I'm not a crook
But I'll take your guilt in the form of dollars
Got a box of lies
Gonna get you high with the words of wisdom that you need to hear
Got a big ass book
And I'm not a crook
But I'll take your guilt in the form of dollars
Fall in line with me
It's all that I see
What I believe
(Its all that)
Fall in line with me
It's all that I see
What I believe
(It's all that)
It's all that I see
Keep my fingers crossed
I wanna be somewhere that I belong
(Never fold under pressure)
Keep my fingers crossed
I wanna be somewhere that I belong
(Never mind how I got there)
Never mind how I got there
7. HONEY REVENGE
I will never let you leave my sight
I've been staying up lately, all night
Making sure you get to bed safely
Dreaming of when it will be you and me
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
You go there and I'll go too
I'll be the one that follows you
Watch you sleep and watch you wake
Notice all the moves you make
(Be your rock, I'll be your guide)
(Without you it's suicide)
Can't wait til the day we meet
(Until then I'll watch you sleep)
Oh (I'm just tying the knot)
Can't wait to catch you all alone
Oh (I'm just tying the knot)
Girl, then I swear I'll take you home
Whether you want it or not
Whether you like it or not
Whether you want it or not
Whether you like it or not
I will never let you leave my sight
I've been staying up lately, all night
Making sure you get to bed safely
Dreaming of when it will be you and me
I've got the sickest picture of you in my mind
I get the strangest urges all of the time inside
Take part in this demonstration, rope mixed with wine
I hope to follow through with you cause the timings right
Stuck inside the living room
Tangled faces, glow in tune
(Commenting is hardly rude)
I can't monitor what I consume
Body count competition
Childhood memory demolition
(Slap your wrist, except the sentence)
Ain't my fault if I'm irrelevant
Oh (I'm just tying the knot)
Can't wait to catch you all alone
Oh (I'm just tying the knot)
Girl, then I swear I'll take you home
Whether you want it or not
Whether you like it or not
Whether you want it or not
Whether you like it or not
I'm always watching you
8. DEMO TEAM
Put it in my fist and squish n twist with the wrist
Hotter than my
Cancel my vacation, I'm on a terabyte
Seeking persuasion from desperate minds
Numbers and figures replacing reality
Conquering patrons with dexterous lines
That's my body, it's a device
Turn on the anti rape mechanism
Porcelain shooters, walk past the moon
Macroscopic view
Piece together, shards into cables
Swollen shoulder rotator cuff
Clandestine, makeshift vestibule
Pardon the unstable broken stuff
All these impostors are making me addicted
Conformist reason is all I can trust
(No matter how hard I lie they believe it all)
I did college, majored in smart, concocted ways to be useless and poor
Successful could barely describe the shape of my infinite wisdom, I can spit from mouth
(No matter how hard I lie they believe it all)
The esoteric, righteous believer, repeat the process, becoming a monk
The morality was it derived from or intrinsically inherent
Cold blocks pop, concocts an instant freeze
I'm consistently drawn to the smell of please
Flood brain tips I'm seeing shapes like trees
Turn it on its side and rape the vertices
Ripple lifter christening his new bought bricks
Grip my magic, force the page to slip
Rope burn mistress in the cage with a limp
Turn it on its side and smack the weak out the wimp
For slump
Put it in my fist and squish n twist with the wrist
Hotter than my
Get it away from me
Get it away from me
Empty it out
Empty it out
Get it away from me
Get it away from me
Empty it out
Empty it out
9. DEATH OF THE ROBOT WITH HUMAN HAIR
You won't realize it's over
Til you slip into unconsciousness
And the moment takes over
Swallow your pride my soldiers
And embrace your abilities
Let your new mind take over
I take a bow
Listen to the crowd
My survival is all I think about now
It's for the best
We'll cure the helpless
Our survival is all we'll think about now
Hush now don't you cry
Everything will be just fine
His self-repairing skeleton
Cyborg man's computer blood
Programming immunity
Alpha being
His knowledge expands exponentially
As he rapidly evolves at infinitum
Deleting disease, cut and sever
Cells and metal blend together
Replicating, assimilating, science and biology
The Death of the robot, the birth of him
All at once we'll become him
The Death of the robot, the birth of him
One by one we'll become him
Make this motherfucker golden
Make this motherfucker holy
Level up his brain, in the fast lane
Make this being holy
Put him through the test inspections
Make this motherfucker holy
Make this motherfucker golden
Make this motherfucker holy
In future utopias, alpha hybrids evolve
Into progressive societies, worship efficiency
Technology makes me pray to logic
And science makes us strong
We rape the ignorance of man
Prepare the arrival
Right on time
He arrives
Alleviate the symptoms from
A toxic society
We praise the future
You won't realize it's over
Til you slip into unconsciousness
And the moment takes over
Swallow your pride my soldiers
And embrace your abilities
Let your new mind take over
I take a bow
Listen to the crowd
My survival is all I think about now
It's for the best
We'll cure the helpless
Our survival is all we'll think about now
Hush now don't you cry
Everything will be just fine
Put him through the test inspections
Make this motherfucker holy
Make this motherfucker golden
Make this motherfucker holy
10. THE JIGGLER
I'm sick of twisting the knobs, your little baby's a slob
I wanna love you but this house ain't built for two
I think I panic a lot, not really sure what I've got
I wanna love you but this house ain't built for two
I'm sick of twisting the knobs
(So where's my sweet love)
I think I've hidden from myself, but there's too many layers
I turn my head and cough
Like I'm calling the cops
Is there something more to you than just bible study?
Turn your camera on
You don't wanna miss this
The way lighting shifts
As it reflects off the water
Below this sinking ship
I feel your fingertips.. slipping away
Can't shake the feeling now
How far we've fallen down
Like our best days are behind us
You're the revisionist
And I'm the narcissist.. drifting away
To my sunstroke ghost dance gold corona
Did I crack that lens, put my weight upon ya
Does the manifest dictate to love and honor
Can the creed uphold, can we repeat our mantra
Trust my luck and show my feelings
Cross my fingers, cards are dealing
Busting out my skull shaped ceiling
Hold my fucking body back
I'm still raging from the sanction you placed upon the impoverished nations
Delusions of grandeur, have some patience
Hold my fucking body back
I can't predict the future
And I can't forget the past
Can't focus any longer
Desperate to make this last
Keep us from going under
Won't waste all that we have
You called it in November
And it burned up in a flash
Burned up in a flash
Feel the hangover in my mind
But this one's a different kind
Losing touch of the concept of time
My senses are frozen
Losing touch with my concept of time
My senses are frozen
I'm sick of twisting the knobs, your little baby's a slob
I wanna love you but this house ain't built for two
I think I panic a lot, not really sure what I've got
I wanna love you but this house ain't built for two
I'm sick of twisting the knobs
(So where's my sweet love)
I think I've hidden from myself, but there's too many layers
I turn my head and cough
Like I'm calling the cops
Is there something more to you than just bible study?
11. TURN OFF THE LIGHTS, I'M WATCHING BACK TO THE FUTURE PT. 2
You always keep me coming back for more
So many faces in the world but I want yours
The way you make me feel inside my bones
I can't remember how it feels to be alone
And when you call my phone late at night
Anticipation always burns me up inside
Shimmy my way down underground, polluting airways in my wake
Swaying architecture, grappling a birthday cake
It's analogy backfire, in the cliché storm of backwards prose
Shoot the agony beam
Wearing sacrificial clothes
I haven't slept for weeks
Just a couple more and I'll be yours
I'll be coming home again
And we'll tear apart those sheets
And forget the world, a little while
Get to know your form again
Say the part, say the phrase, say the meaning
I want to hear what you're seeing
Say the part, say the phrase, say the meaning
I want to know what you're feeling
If it's making sense on time, then why do I hear their whines?
If it's moves and breathes it's fine, don't let it mess with your mind
Paging Dr mess your patient's throwing food and ate his robe
You always keep me coming back for more
So many faces in the world but I want yours
The way you make me feel inside my bones
I can't remember how it feels to be alone
And when you call my phone late at night
Anticipation always burns me up inside
Shimmy my way down underground, polluting airways in my wake
Swaying architecture, grappling a birthday cake
It's analogy backfire, in the cliché storm of backwards prose
Shoot the agony beam
Wearing sacrificial clothes
Quantum something can do anything
(Easier said than done)
An accidental public confession was made
(Can't be the only one)
I was in a viper fight, but I'm alright
(That jacket looks good on most people)
Confused cause I'm too dumb to find the light
(Finally exiled)
Overcome by circumstance
I put my life in the devil's hands
Fell lower than before, lower than ever before
I know it's hard to forgive me now, but I swear I've taught myself how
To barricade the door
I won't go there anymore
Overcome by circumstance, separated by consequence
I fell lower than before, lower than I have before
If I could just get through to you, we could put in the final screws
To the barricade the door
And start back where we were
Carcinogenic isotope, we need the A-team montage
Disregard the message from the ending of the album
