Lyrics Meltdown (Live) - King Crimson

Now he lies buried in metaphors
And allegory won't let him breathe
Distorting the truth as he suffocates language in spin
Drowning in double speak lexicon
Leaves him washed up, out of reach
Devised and contrived and injected under his skin
Meltdown
Works in Meltdown
Meltdown
Works in Meltdown
Down down down
When in doubt
Better say nothing
No speak without
A place to begin
When in doubt
Don't just say something
Those platitudes
Start to wear thin
Meltdown
Works in Meltdown
Down down down
Watch it coming down
There without a sound
See their kingdom drown under the waves
