Cataract Songtext

von Aftertaste

You are one fantastic disaster waiting to happen
Saccharin sarcastic with a twist of lemon
You're a walking car crash; a beautiful demise
A favorite accident; the littlest white lie
there's always something in your way
(for those who can't see past the waves)
stubbornness suggests seeing is believing
(it's only there if you see something)
in fact that cataract's impeding your receiving
(cataract impedes receiving)
You're iconoclastic; the subtlest of changes
Quickly turning drastic; a crumbling rock of ages
You're an allergic reaction to a harmless stimuli
A slowly sinking boat suddenly bone dry
You're all alone, buried in the sand
And watching all these waves roll in
Waiting for the tide to rise
And wash these memories from your mind
