The Mall and Misery

Use your intuition, it's all you've got
Keys are rare and there's a thousand locks
Stand in your way
So goes the Gold Age, your tired life

Digging for a way, you cast a spell
Carve a path from all the things they sell
But they don't let go
Just thought you should know
Either way

I know what I know
Would not fill a thimble
So let your mind go (let my mind go)
Straight down the runway
Does one want to
Get more used to
The mall and misery? (The mall and the misery)
The debt mounts, the costs to be alive

Your eyes are burning from the biting cold
If only to learn what you've never been told
There's a real world
And somewhere a good girl lives and breathes

Powdered hope in my callow mind
Ideas stolen in the morning tide
There's a dark time
And this is a dark rhyme to fill your heart

I know what I know
Would not fill a thimble
So let your mind go (let my mind go)
Straight down the runway
Does one want to
Get more used to
The mall and misery? (The mall and the misery)
The debt mounts, the costs to be alive
