Fixed Positions

Lyrics for Fixed Positions

When your position remains fixed, my dear Results can be mixed, I fear There's a stasis No new ideas and no new faces Misadventures and far flung places Don't get me wrong, it's not dull But if you stay here long enough, I feel we'll always be this way And if you're screwing up your face, oh, won't it always stay that way? Always be this way Will we always stay this way? You know there really isn't much preventing The way you see the world cementing There's a stony creeping Cradle to grave or forever weeping Rounded on all sides, you're forever sleeping Promise to resist until you die (resist until you die) Promise to resist until you die An object set in motion (object set in motion) The arbiter of time (arbiter of time) The unexpressed emotion (unexpressed emotion) Capital crime (capital crime) So pick a random number (pick a random number) Making sure it's prime (making sure it's prime) Pick a random number between one and one hundred and nine You stay here long enough and you know we'll always be this way And when you're screwing up your face, oh, won't it always stay that way? And when we're sheltering in place, oh, would we always be this way Always be this way Will we always stay this way? (Will we always stay this way? Will we always stay this way?) Will we always stay this way? (Will we always stay this way? Will we always stay this way?) Will we always be this way? (Will we always be this way?) When your position remains fixed Results can be mixed I fear there's a stasis
