Lyrics

Monolith

You lost it, you stole it

You bought it, you found it

You lost it, you stole it

You bought it, you found it

You lost it, you stole it

You bought it, you found it

You lost it, you stole it

You bought it, you found it

You broke it, you sold it

You dropped it, you drowned it

You thought it, you want it

You flew it, you slew it

You glue it, you [?] it

You shopped it, you it

You lost it, you stole it

You bought it, you found it

You broke it, you sold it

You dropped it, you drowned it

This is the definition of my life

Lying in bed in the sunlight

Choking on the vitamin tablet

The doctor gave in the hope of saving me

In the hope of saving me
