The Ballad of Quark Lepton

from The Ballad of Quark Lepton (EP) by Quark Lepton

lyrics

Conversations that we've never had
I hear them now repeating in my head
As silent buildings in silent cities look down
Was it deforestation? Was it acid rain?
Was it an alien invasion that left me alone again?
It doesn't matter. It probably doesn't matter now.
I'm looking for the doorway in this city that will let me out.
I found a rifle in an empty hotel.
I shot my dinner: medium well.
In every dimension after every lover it's the same.
Well don't they know it's the end of the world again?
Don't know how I got to be
So important
Open myself up to love but
I don't force it
And each time I meet someone it's
Unfortunate for
Everyone who lives in that world
I reach the doorway on the seventh day
I haul out the refuse that gets in the way
I hold my breath wondering
What is in store
What lovers will await me on the
Other side of that door?
