Crisis Video (MV)

Underwhelm and overthrow me
Oversell your understanding
A crisis
Of quiet remarks
Much like this
Feeling you're on
The phrases
We holster for months
You smile when
I ask what you want

Lessons and parables heard as a child
All set up the terrible things from your life
And watch you blunder through them

I asked but you were quite quiet
I asked but you were quite quiet

Underwhelm and overthrow me
Oversell your understanding
A crisis
Of quiet remarks
Much like this
Feeling you're on
The phrases
We holster for months
You smile when
I ask what you want

I asked but you were quite quiet
I asked but you were quite quiet

You'll watch me blunder through this
And wonder how you knew it

Remember that image of quiet alarm?
You as a mother alive with your songs
Me as a guard and I'm holding your arm
Fingertips only; I thought it was wrong

Underwhelm and overthrow me
Oversell your understanding
A crisis
Of quiet remarks
Much like this
Feeling you're on
The phrases
We holster for months
You smile when
I ask what you want
