lyrics

Do you hear what I hear?
Or am I slowly losing it?

Ugh
This implacable drone is maddening
So...

Dull moan of chicanery exposed
Overtones of unpleasantries Oh no

The anomaly is steadily increasing in intensity
A mind or an ear drum is gonna blow
The anomaly is steadily increasing in intensity
A sound most are unfit to ever know

Victims of the Hum
Scratch at their ears when the word is mum
A slip of the tongue
Reach for your ears when the leak has sprung

An impending sense
An explosion of the head
Overwhelmed and driven to envy the deaf

A rumble from below the sand
What a cavity to place a head
When the blind do populate a land
Anyone can claim to have an operable eye

What if the sound comes from inside us?
A crippling case of Tinnitus
Auditory sort of detritus
Brief silences serve as reminders

Do not fall prey to the shark
Chasing schools of vermilion fishes
Essentially kept in the dark
When the waters are muddied and spinning
A pollution of noise
The cacophony keeps on building
A disoriented poise
Two left feet at the thinker's cotillion

The anomaly is steadily increasing in intensity
A mind or an ear drum is gonna blow
The anomaly is steadily increasing in intensity
A sound most are unfit to ever know

Victims of the Hum
Scratch at their ears when the word is mum
A slip of the tongue
Reach for your ears when the leak has sprung
