about

Featuring the exquisite multi guitar, sitar, work of Nero Catlano and the powerfully reflective Joilet F. Harris, this tune is a meditation on growing up.

lyrics

Some gods keep it all together for you,
Other gods judge what some gods do.
Go out and grab as many gods as you can,
The younger you are the less you demand.
Pay close attention to detail and design,
Then you lay'em on thick or you lay'em on fine.
I grieve when I'm happy and I grieve when I'm sad,
So when the bottom falls out I bet it won't be so bad.
For when one god crumbles then my world will erupt,
When all my gods crumble then I'll know I've grown up.
And what will i do when all my gods
Are invisible like you?
When all my gods are invisible like you.

Imitation shatters
The same thing that it flatters...
Imitation shatters,
The same thing that it flatters...
Imitation shatters
some gods,
other gods...
