King Crimson - Meltdown (Live in Mexico, 2017)

Meltdown (Live in Mexico, July 2017)

Now he lies buried in metaphors
And allegory won't let him breathe
Distorting the truth as he suffocates language in spin
Drowning in doublespeak lexicon
Leaves him washed up, out of reach
Devised and contrived and injected under his skin

Meltdown
Words in meltdown, down
Meltdown
Words in meltdown, down
Down

When in doubt, better say nothing
No speak without a place to begin
When in doubt, don't just say something
Those platitudes start to wear thin

Meltdown
Words in meltdown, down
Meltdown
Words in meltdown

Down

Watch it coming down there without a sound
See their kingdom drown under the waves
Watch it coming down there without a sound
See their kingdom drown under the waves
Watch it coming down there without a sound
See their kingdom drown under the waves
