My Troubled Past

lyrics

I trusted many people of authority, and I trusted their machines. With
a moment of distraction or priority misplaced, I knew that things
would change.
(Just a blip on radar. Tried to see it coming. White is luminous
green. Blackness of the small screen.)
I was counting their money. What lives one single digit could have
cost! And after several different occupations, I could say I counted
money for 'em all.
(Just a blip on radar. Tried to see it coming. In millions of colors.
Always stands to reason.)
And then I bought the bank that I belonged to. And then I moved an
island with my mind.
(Just a blip on radar. Always saw it coming. Tried to see it coming.
In millions of colors.)
And then I stood atop the spire of the tallest landscape. And then I
felt the dark matter destroy my senses.
