about

"The black hole confronting especially the high university is that its textual products generate an intensification of oxymoronics: one is to speak for reality, about and of reality, while conserving an academic ‘post of speaking’ (as expert) that cannot be challenged except by one’s identical other."
- Sande Cohen, Academia and the Luster of Capital

lyrics

My motivation is at an all time low
Don't you white wash me, my skin’s too frail

It's coming down in swarms today, I hear, I hurt
It’s all over my ears now
All the buzzwords and the laughter
I hear, I hurt, I hear, I hurt, I heard you the first time
It's coming down in swarms today
I can't get up!

I know you tried to map it out for me
I still have problems understanding . . .

It's coming down in swarms today, I hear, I hurt
It’s all over my ears now
All the buzzwords and the laughter
I hear, I hurt, I hear, I hurt, I heard you the first time
It's coming down in swarms today
I can't get up!
