Can Dialectics Break Bricks? - Shinobu

Turn the corner on twenty years

And find that you haven’t found much out in the past twenty years

I’m still scared

I won’t hide my fear

I’m not 100% sure that I’m even 80% here

But witticisms bordering on obnoxious will always make me smile

I tried to hide — what could I do?

Tangible life has tangibly forced me back into tangibility

Can’t hide inside books and films and the dialectics of philosophy

But, sad lyrics sung happily will always strike a chord

Because half the time I’m happily sad and the rest of the time I just couldn’t

care

Oh no!

This is life, so grab your books and rulers and break them in half

Oh no!

This is my life and this is it, but I’d rather take a nap

All in all, I’m just along for the ride

But I’ll stick around if we’re going somewhere interesting
