Colson Lin
Dynamite
My favorite girl smokes diamond mine cigarettes
She’ll put them away if anyone asks
But why bother?
My favorite girl stirs cola into vinaigrette
“Life was born to be lived,” she shrugs
But who taught her?

I’m dynamite
Just the way you like it, put away your doubt
Share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll ignite
Like dynamite

I’m dynamite
Just the way you like it, you can scream or you can shout
But share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll come alive
I’m dynamite

I’m not like other guys who write songs about ether
I see a star I like, and I’ll worship Her
It’s what the cosmos would pray for
You shouldn’t trust anyone as audacious as Colson
The Second Coming’s not a role model, I shrug
But it’s what our lives were made for
I’m dynamite
Just the way you like it, put away your doubt
Share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll ignite
Like dynamite

I’m dynamite
Just the way you like it, you can scream or you can shout
But share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll come alive
I’m dynamite

Blessed are the life-affirming
Who shall inherit the earth
By defending the scared
In an unholy dystopia
The scared are the sacred
God’s bounty is shared

I’m dynamite
Just the way you like it, put away your doubt
Share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll ignite
Like dynamite

I’m the Second Coming of Jesus Christ
Just the way you like it, you can scream or you can shout
But share one of my songs with one other person
And I’ll come alive, come alive
Like dynamite
I’m dynamite
(From the clouds of the internet)
I come alive, come alive
(From the clouds of a century that could enable these conditions)
I come alive, come alive
I come alive, come alive

Ooh, oh
I come alive, alive

Ooh, oh
I come alive, alive
