Let's get together and talk about the modern age   All of our friends were gathered there    With their pets, just talking shit   About how we're all so upset about the disappearing ground   As we watch it melt      It's all of the good that won't come out of us   And how eventually our hands will just turn to dust   If we keep shaking them   Standing here on this frozen lake      I do this thing where I think I'm real sick   But I won't go to the doctor to find out about it   Because they make you stay real still   In a real small space   As they chart up your insides and put them on display      They'd see all of it, all of me, all of it      All of the good that won't come out of me   And all the stupid lies I hide behind   It's such a big mistake   Lying here in your warm embrace      Oh, you're almost home   I've been waiting for you to come in   Dancing around in your old suits   Going crazy in your room again   I think I'll go out and embarrass myself    By getting drunk and falling down in the street   You say I choose sadness    That it never once has chosen me   Maybe you're right      Let's talk about all our friends who lost the war   And all the novels that have yet to be written about them      It's all of the good that won't come out of them   And all the stupid lies they hide behind    It's such a big mistake   Standing here on this frozen lake      It's all of the good that won't come out of me   And how eventually my mouth will just turn to dust   If I don't tell you quick   Standing here on this frozen lake
