Generate meaning
1
Swimming in a snifter
2
pretty as a picture
3
don't get it twisted man, her bite is a b*tch
4
you can name, you can keep her
5
but take care when you feed her
6
you never can take the fight out the fish
7
chomping at the drill bit
8
never one to still sit
9
you can test my metal with a magnet and some tin snips
10
ink test all I see is canines and some wing tips
11
pilot pen in pocket, I'm riding instinct and ink jets
12
around here we don't like talk of big dreams
13
to stand out is a pride, a conceit
14
to aim high is to make waves, to split seams
15
but that's not what it seems like to me cause
16
I wanna try, I wanna risk
17
and I don't wanna walk
18
I'd rather swing and miss
19
I'm not above apologies but I don't ask permission
20
got a lot of imperfections but I don't count my ambition in them
21
Chorus:
22
Zeno's arrow never hits the mark
23
it's always hanging there over its shadow
24
safe from battle, waste of archer's time and trouble
25
waste of effort, waste of parts
26
if you don't aim for the center, it's a waste of the art
27
I didn't come looking for love
28
I didn't come to pick a fight
29
I didn't come to wave or take pictures
30
pander to some benefactor, ring on every broken finger
31
won't extend my wings to be clipped
32
I know the culture here is to stay humble, but sh*t
33
if we all go round bowed heads, button-lipped
34
if never none of us go for the belt, who wins?
35
my mother says I've loved too many men
36
but I took and left something in every single bed
37
The rook can look left, right"”just turns his head
38
but the knight might rise up, investigate the grid
39
gender, genre, guess I'm on one
40
both the constructs
41
women, children let me tell you, I've been both
42
and it's a myth we all swim for the lifeboats
43
I didn't come looking for love
44
I didn't come to pick a fight
45
I come here every night to work
46
and you can grab an ax man or you can step aside
47
Chorus
48
Self taught, self made, bet self styled
49
self came
50
We march in Converse
51
own tools
52
my joints hold steady
53
Chucks laced ready
54
I travel by kite, travel
55
touchdown
56
I swallowed the dice
57
I make my own luck now
58
Zeno's arrow never hits the mark
59
it's always hanging there over it's own shadow in the dark
60
it's own shadow in the dark
