lyrics

Today, I’ve decided that I will refrain, from the burning globe
Oh, today, I’ve decided that I will ignore, your vaccine

Today, I’ve decided that I will abstain, from evolution
Oh today, I’ve decided to take a break, from gravity

The choice is clearly mine
The world is my mirror
And I win if I so choose
It’s my purchase if I lose

Tonight, I’ve decided that I will scrawl, a manifesto
Oh, writing from, my ocean cave, with no tide

The choice is completely mine
This flower grows anywhere
And I win if I so choose
It’s my purchase if I lose

The choice is completely mine
The world is my mirror
And I win if I so choose
It’s my purchase if I lose
