Mother's Keeper

Who will keep your mother's keeper
While you batten and flatten down the wind?
And who will sell her to the reaper?
Your games are all too late to amend
You thought
The world was
Endless
And open
But she's getting older
And you're still a boulder
Trying to control her
With your chin on your shoulder
And who will be your mother's keeper?
Nasty little habits do you in
You will feed her to the reaper
And soon you'll be following her in
All that cash you
Blindly burned through
Will it buy you a new day?
Faces you don't have to lie to?
The papers will feature
The man called your mother's keeper
The papers will feature
The man called your mother's keeper
They won't beat you deeper
You'll be your mother's keeper
They won't beat you deeper
You'll be your mother's keeper
And who are you?
Who are you?

Only Critical

You always know what to know
Why would you take advice, though?
You only go where you want
Your hat, it makes a nice home
You don't want what I know
You'll be conquering all
You don't want what I know
You'll be conquering all
Travel far, and you'll find
Endless pools of blank minds
Fill 'em up on a dime
And make 'em cry in good time
You don't want what I know
You'll be conquering all
You don't want what I know
'Cause you'll be conquering all
CHORUS:
You're only critical
Only critical
On your own
You're on your own
I'll never bother to call
Why do I stand to learn at all?
Pride'll end in a fall
Strewn with roses at your alter
You don't need what we know
You'll be fine all alone
You don't need what we know
You'll be fine all alone
CHORUS
And you can't go home
And you can't go home
No, you can't go home
