Oh, how compliments make the mind fraught
Just buttered up before taken out back and shot
Long been tested in this school of thought
Every stranger's story comes with its own sick plot
High time to drain the cynicyst
Surely to burst should it persist
Try having trust, I do insist
High time to drain the cynicyst
Smiling like a sneering abscess
Even the cure to world hunger would not impress
How could someone enjoy life's recess
When bound to fall face first down the slide, I digress
High time to drain the cynicyst
Surely to burst should it persist
Try having trust, I do insist
I take a look behind my eyes
Start cutting myself down to size
At this rate all of my allies
Will consist of a swarm of flies
High time to drain the cynicyst
Surely to burst should it persist
Try having trust, I do insist
High time to drain the cynicyst
