Jenny Lewis
The Execution of All Things
Soldiers move quickly
I feel the earth beneath my feet
I'm feeling badly
It’s not an attempt at decency
And if you're well off
Well I'm happy some for you
But I’d rather not celebrate
My defeat and humiliation here with you
Someone come quickly
This place was built for moving out
Leave behind buildings
The city planners got mapped out
Bring with you history
And make your hard earned feast
And we'll move to Omaha
To work and exploit the booming music scene
And humility
And we've been talking all night
Oh god come quickly
The execution of all things
Let's start with the bears and the air
And mountains, rivers and streams
Murder what matters to you
And move on to your family and friends
Crush all hopes of happiness
With disease cause of what you did
And when you're all away
With nothing left but sleep
But sleep never comes to you
It's the guilt and forever wakefulness of the weak
It's just you and me
The execution of all things
The execution of all things
The execution of all things
