Grade – Vertical Transmission lyrics

when opinion is
brought on by suggestion
the anecdote
is not evidence enough
for handouts of daily anesthetic
to disguise the next disappointment
or as eating brains
can cure primitive intellect
the history of my mistakes
bases on the pretense
of being paid to
paint over spiders as important
instead of listening to the
leaves as they amplify
the beat of the rain
we take a hammer to the head
