lyrics

sisyphus at least had a boulder
i’ve got nothing left to push up a hill
every winter keeps getting colder
my breath lingers on the windowsill

take me anyplace
wrench my heart
from the cast iron grave
such a endless grace
carved akimbo
from the earthly lathe

theseus at least had a ship, man
i've got nothing left to build up again
all my money in a tin can
left behind before the businessmen

find me anything
i'm a golem
for your penchant needs
with your lovely wings
help me gravitate
toward better leads

inst

i'm a busted gun
fired too many times
at mounds of dirt
lost the lust for fun
now abandoned
in a wrapped up shirt

herakles at least had some god's blood
i've got nothing but a mortal design
took my number at the big flood
i keep telling folks i'm doing fine

lay me anytime
in the backyard
under shining sun
maybe you'll be mine
in the progress
in the inch
of salvation
