Lyrics
Surrender your furniture
Surrender your possessions and attachments
Push the television out the window
Reject mainstream media and societal norms
Over-medicated, this must be the sunks
Feeling over-medicated, possibly overwhelmed or numbed
So if you can't understand the blues, you don't know much
If you can't understand hardships, you lack life experience
With much love for science and youthful defiance
Expressing love for science and rebellion in youth
We struck blindly at the roots of this tree
Attempting to challenge the foundations of a situation
Its branches got broken, pissed on and trampled
Consequences of rebellion: damage, disrespect, and disregard
Oh please forgive us, oh mighty shady tree
Seeking forgiveness from a metaphorical shady tree
Oh please forgive us, oh mighty doomsday tree
Apology extended to a symbolic doomsday tree
It's time to stick your branches in the merciless wheel of time
Encouraging involvement in the progression of time
It's time to stick your branches in the merciless spokes of time
Suggesting engagement in the harsh aspects of time
It's time to stick a fork in the merciless socket of time
Mentioning confronting challenges in life
It's time to be sewn into the limitless fabric of time
Advocating integration into the eternal fabric of existence
They'll call you a wash-up when you can't stay sunk
Being criticized when unable to cope with difficulties
It's a shame to be so wet so young
Expressing regret for losing innocence early in life
Living your life with much love for science
Living life with a passion for science and defiance
And the youthful defiance, we struck blindly at the roots of this tree
Repeating the theme of challenging established norms
Whose branches got broken, pissed on and trampled
Highlighting the negative consequences of rebellion
It's time to stick your branches in the merciless wheel of time
Encouraging continued involvement in the progression of time
It's time to stick your branches in the merciless spokes of time
Reiterating the need to face the harsh aspects of time
It's time to stick a fork in the merciless socket of time
Emphasizing the importance of confronting challenges
It's time to be sewn into the limitless fabric of time
Advocating integration into the timeless essence of existence
