Memorize the Dictionary - Mean the Best

No one could capture this moment on film
'Cause film smooths the smallest cracks
And truth has been told in papers and frames
In the pencils of the broken and confused

And no truth has been told in atoms and cells
In the bloodstream of kings
Destined to fall
The dust on a photo covers certain imperfections
Certain crystal potholes in your mind

Meaning is only what you give
Everything that was sacred lives in your mind
Nestled softly with your fading memories
A poster on the wall will make a face much larger than it is
It'll bloat them so you'll never reach
The empty glamour in their eyes
And the glitter in their graves

Let the breath fly away
Someone will remember one day
Just another silly tune lost to the world
Just another tall tale written to confuse

And I'll be breaking bread with the bakers soon enough
So give a toast to our betters above
We, the workers and idealists
Small and forgiving
Built to serve you

Meaning is only what you give
Everything that was sacred lives in your mind
Nestled softly with your fading memories
A dull man, a bricklayer
Helping the prince
We mean the best
We mean the best
We mean the best for you
We mean the best for you
