Winning Speech from Misadventures by The Melting Ice Caps

brine flows
the time goes
and still no real detractors to be seen

skin peels
do you feel quite as you intended in victory?

oh, you're slowly drifting back
the tether rope's gone slack
the lapping of the waves grows louder

oh, you're sad but you're relieved
back down from your beliefs
we want to know
we want to hear
your winning speech

i don't
believe your
projected sense of certainty

you're thirsty
and angry
the landmarks aren't where they were
supposed to be

oh, you're slowly drifting back
the tether rope's gone slack
the jeering of the crowd grows louder

oh, so sad but so relieved
back down from your beliefs
and sober up
we want to hear
your winning speech
wipe your face
we'd like to hear
your winning words
you've got to get out of this now
how you gonna get out of this now, or ever?
