Bell X1 - Feint Praise Lyrics

I heap on feint praise
That's never getting stronger
No matter how much shit I throw

For it is flawed and dangerous
Hollow ringing in my ears
And the bitter aftertaste, like rust

Yeah, I make the nice, and sidestep
Anything to dance around a fight
I need to say it aloud

That life is short
And days filled with rictus smiles
Are wasted, and bring dishonor
On this house

You must never squeeze the teabag
Leave it alone
What did it ever do to you?

Trying to be
All things to all men
You end up being none

So no more hand-wringing
No more anything for an easy life
Call it when I see wrong

So when I am done and wheezing
On my last bed
I won't wish I'd done something
Else instead
