SO WE ARE GREASE

Intro

(So we are grease)

(So we are grease)

Verse

This shore is not unlike the iron pan

Flint said it plain with his jaw set hard

Every world that died got fried in the grease of its own rules

The kingdoms broke the skies came down

But the dirt here holds the fat of dead realms

That is how I figure my friend would say it

Huh you know I always listen to that little voice

It guided us a long long way and never once let us down

Spoken Interlude

(Niska stood stiff)

(Stood stiff on the beach)

She took the picture apart in her surveyor mind

Found the raw truth tucked inside the kitchen image

Then the deeper meaning hit her gut

Hot blood rushed up into her cheeks

Chorus

So we are grease

So we are grease

My mother died in an alcove

Five miles of crystal rained fire on eight islands

And to you it is just pork fat

In a dirty skillet

Verse

Do not ask for the ground

Then get upset when you are handed dirt

You gave me a butcher's excuse

You gave me nothing but a butcher's excuse

You look at a whole world of living people

You treat us like lumber in your private workshop

You decided our sky was a rotten beam

So you took us down with you

Chorus

So we are grease

So we are grease

My brother broke his standing

Five miles of crystal rained fire on eight islands

And to you it is just pork fat

In a dirty skillet

Bridge

That roof was coming down with or without my hammer

Your elders harvested children

The foundation was soaked in rot

I swung the iron while you still had breath

To walk away to walk away

Chorus

So we are grease

So we are grease

Silla lied right to my face

Five miles of crystal rained fire on eight islands

And you lied to my face too

You think you are the only man who knows

How to hold a building upright

Outro

I am sick of being saved by liars

I am sick of being saved by liars

(So we are grease)

(Fuck you)
