Obsidian Currents Lyrics - Lousy With Sylvianbriar - Of Montreal

You like to think that you can 

Live beyond good and evil 

Amputated from humanity 

On some lifelong intellectual retreat 

Everything is conceptual and 

All is rhetorical 

You can feel so powerful 

When you're forced to face the physical world 

You scurry like an insect

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

There is a virus in your tenets 

Don't be naive, you know it's true 

And if you don't protect yourself 

Obsidian currents 

Will devour you 

You have committed yourself 

Wholly to the dominion of semantics and ideas 

All things cerebral and abstract 

No patience for impractical emotions 

Burning everyone who 

Ever try to get close to you 

But you're so lizard-like you don't 

Feel any passion for anyone but yourself 

Photos 

There is a virus in your tenets 

Don't be naive, you know it's true 

And if you don't protect yourself 

Obsidian currents 

Will devour you
