about

Recorded live in the Madsen Recital Hall in Provo, UT.

lyrics

An empty wallet full of old receipts,
crumpled up like crumpled memories
of traffic lights that used to hang green for me,
and summer nights that didn’t need to mean a thing…

So what makes now so important to you?
and what makes then such a sad excuse of a life?

…And then we ran like lemmings from the cradle,
straight into the strong arms of a corporate fable.
We bought our freedom, making money speak
Now we moan about the words they preach

But what makes words so important to you?
and what makes silence such a sad misuse of our time?
What makes you so sure that you haven’t been wasting, you haven’t been wasting
your delicate time on someone else’s tired dreams?
tired dreams…

So what makes now so important to you?
and what makes then such a sad excuse of a life?
What makes you so sure that you haven’t created, you haven’t created
a surrogate life from someone else’s tired dreams?
tired dreams…

So what makes now so important to you?
and what makes then such a sad excuse…
