A Slanted Tone - F**ked Up[00:00:01]
His voice in the sky is the sound that you hear[00:00:54]
His timbre is dim and his motives aren't clear[00:00:57]
Why does the prophet above have so much to fear[00:01:00]
Things aren't always the way they appear[00:01:02]
He's a horn with a slanted tone[00:01:04]
He's the back without the bone[00:01:07]
The king sits on a crooked throne[00:01:10]
Stuck inside of the story alone[00:01:12]
When he raised a trumpet to his mouth[00:01:15]
The sound of every voice tumbled out[00:01:18]
When he stretched the canvas into his frame[00:01:20]
He painted everyone with the same brush[00:01:22]
He has the whole world by a string[00:01:25]
And he tells the choir when to sing[00:01:27]
He's a shadow in the sky[00:01:30]
He's a horn with a slanted tone[00:01:32]
He's the back without the bone[00:01:34]
The king sits on a crooked throne[00:01:36]
Stuck inside of the story alone[00:01:39]
His description of truth has the pages torn[00:01:41]
His inscription of roses are just the thorns[00:01:44]
His scripture is ripped from the back of his hand[00:01:46]
The scribe's wish is the subject's command[00:01:49]
He's a horn with a slanted tone[00:01:51]
He's the back without the bone[00:01:54]
The king sits on a crooked throne[00:01:57]
Stuck inside of the story alone[00:01:59]
When he raised a trumpet to his mouth[00:02:02]
The sound of every voice tumbled out[00:02:04]
When he stretched the canvas into his frame[00:02:07]
He painted everyone with the same brush[00:02:09]
He has the whole world by a string[00:02:12]
And he tells the choir when to sing[00:02:14]
He's a shadow in the sky[00:02:17]
I'm witnessing things I never thought I'd see[00:02:51]
There's a darkness now I could not foresee[00:02:54]
An innocent man resigned to a plea[00:02:56]
A company in captivity by a narrator's desire[00:03:02]
To be free from the confines of an honest story[00:03:05]
It all seems so surreal but between you and me[00:03:12]
There's a light at the end of the tale[00:03:14]
So you'll see that the way things are now[00:03:16]
Aren't the way they'll always be[00:03:18]
How can I let them know the truth about Octavio[00:03:19]
That he was lying all along[00:03:24]
Don't trust the words you hear in a song[00:03:27]
