[Verse 1: nelward]
I was treading in the sea
Fastened to the fable of an island made of green
And I was threading through my seams
Tangled in the fabric of a fleeting fever dream
Far beyond my mind's fixation
There are fascists making factions of their fucked up brigades
And I'm a sad little boy
Playing with childhood toys
And fluoxetine joys

[Chorus: nelward]
In the fashion of a
In the fashion of a
(In the fashion of a)
(In the fashion of a)

[Verse 2: nelward]
I'm the sad little mouth
Screaming without a sound
"Oh, hold me dear", I wail out in vain
I'm the perilous weight
Pinning you to the gate
As metal coils clash and call out your name
Just when you think I'm gonna stop-
I'm winding up these frail chains for one more good time romp
'Cause you're such a class act
Such a lad, such a snack
When your fiction is fact
[Chorus: nelward & Paige]
In the fashion of a (Oh)
In the fashion of a (Oh)
In the fashion of a
In the fashion of a
(In the fashion of a)
