Album: Hope Is Just A State Of Mind (2015)

Effetism

Effete, makeweight
Nobody cares about you
On your birth date
Wake up: pretend you've
Beaten sleep
I guest you've finally
Made it to the back teeth

Effete to weigh less

Maillot jaune scars
But now you're staring
At a set of new stars
Free Lance from a packed cell
Hematocrit'll kick you
Where your hope dwells

Effete, weightless
Depress to depress
Shake off to shake off
The effete

Everyone was gushing but you never did blush
Bawdy implication was it part of the rush?
Acting so ephemeral according to style
You bully and you sully with a national guile
Everything was open but your mouth stayed
You'd been dealing with the feelings of a seminal cut
The single greatest story and I hoped it was true
But the words on the cover said a lot more about you
