Committee Circus - Such Gold

I’ve got a funny feeling

That the difference you so enjoy seeing

Between yourself and the world outside

Is about as complex as the garment it’s marked by

So let’s skip the introductions

I’ve seen them all and I’m quite tired

Nice to see you’ve found a team

Now pay attention, the game’s always changing

But no, no one wants to feel alone

And the world’s a whole lot bigger

Than your shitty school tax zone

And so you’ll find what you thought that you’d despise

A group that holds you in by shutting others out

And comes conveniently disguised

The judges they are judging

Their platforms never meet

So come and share a laugh with me

At their mortality

Everything we truly love will remain

Regardless of some matching game

And I’m so tired of feeling insincere in all I do

To be sincere in all the ways I’d like to is still impossible

Why do we activate these rooms?

Are split second connections still the closest things?

Five years from now, did the song still save you?

But no, no one wants to feel alone

And the world’s a whole lot bigger than where you’re deemed viable

So stop pretending, pretending that you’re not

Just another group of kids who feel slighted and confused about god

The judges they are judging

Their platforms never meet

So come and share a laugh with me

At their mortality

Everything we truly love will remain

Everything we love will remain

I’ve always done this because it’s my escape

From a world run like a contest

A world with which I can’t relate

I’ve always done this because this is my home
