lyrics

Down on the floor
Watching the screens decree their winnings
Who is it for
Trading a horse of high beginnings
Kicked out the door
Here's to a sense of missed belonging
Back to the war
Tally the endless cost of wronging, while we

Spurn the numbers right before us
Turn the quack into the chorus
Contradict the brontosaurus
Simple then, to just ignore us, in a

Silent Catastrophe
Now it's done, now it's done, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
As we augur for an ending, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
Who's the next Seventh Son, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
Now it's done, now it's done, now it's done

Up on the hill
Blessed with a sense of information
Fire at will
Cover the blowback to your station
You know the drill
You know the bust inspires devotion
Market the pill
Target the seat of our emotion, while we

Spurn the numbers right before us
Turn the quack into the chorus
Contradict the brontosaurus
Simple then, to just ignore us, in a

Silent Catastrophe
Now it's done, now it's done, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
As we augur for an ending, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
Who's the next Seventh Son, we're in a
Silent Catastrophe
Now it's done, now it's done, now it's done

I'm only trying to connect
Spent so much time looking o'er my shoulder
How could I be more direct
How does it feel to be getting older

Mount Pressmore Austin, Texas

Mount Pressmore makes music that crosses cultures and transcends categories. It’s Herbie Hancock meeting Peter Gabriel in a Danny Elfman film score. It’s a comedy, for sure, but one that balances social satire with self-examination.
