lyrics

Hey there honey-bee, what do you see lurking in the shadows between you and me?
Is it the same old trope, or a silly joke, or the answer to a question that nobody's asking?
Well if it's all of the above (and it is) then why don't we all just sing about love? Again and again until it's spread so thin that it doesn't exist,
Just like that bought and sold, blind happiness. So now we can all at least die with something.
But everything feels a whole lot like nothing, don't it?

Hey there honey-bee, what's there to believe if everybody's got their own prophecy?
Is it time to repent, or get real bent over every injustice that you've ever met?
Been told that you can't have it both ways, as if every day just ends up the same (hey!), but things are constantly changing; molecules rearranging.
Take a walk on the bright side, and quit your complaining; now we can all at least die with something.
But take a good hard look at nothing.
