I must obey the rules
I must be tame and cook
No staring at the clouds
I must stay on the ground
In clusters of the mice
The smoke is in our eyes
Like babies on display
Like angels in a cage
I must be pure and true
I must contain my views
There must be something else
There must be something good
Far away
For good
Soundgarden was one of the most interesting bands from the '90s. Although apparently they're getting back together, this is, to date, the last song they ever released. That makes it all the more poignant for me: I wish this had been their first song, and they had followed this yearning to its only true telos.
