So you say you're ignored
As it is
Well, give us your sad, sad trip
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Assumed it's whether
We're right, or wrong
We're doomed, and there's plenty for all
How dare you catch me counting?
How dare you call at all?
How dare you call this suffering?
How dare you call at all?
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Press on these tannins
They'll double in time
The touch of life, once failed to mention so far
Of course the law is fountains
Of face to face remorse
Of fast and restless blackmail
Like pent-up fetish force
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Takes a minute to see
Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Do you want it or not?
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Life, life, life
As it is
Well, give us your sad, sad trip
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Assumed it's whether
We're right, or wrong
We're doomed, and there's plenty for all
How dare you catch me counting?
How dare you call at all?
How dare you call this suffering?
How dare you call at all?
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Press on these tannins
They'll double in time
The touch of life, once failed to mention so far
Of course the law is fountains
Of face to face remorse
Of fast and restless blackmail
Like pent-up fetish force
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Takes a minute to see
Do you want it enough?
Do you want it at all?
Should you need it at all?
Do you want it or not?
You're right, I get it
It all makes sense, you're the perfect person
So right, so wrong
Let's all live in your imaginary life
Life, life, life

Tannin solutions are acid and have an astringent taste. Tannin is responsible for the astringency, colour, and some of the flavour in tea. Tannins occur normally in the roots, wood, bark, leaves, and fruit of many plants, particularly in the bark of oak species and in sumac and myrobalan. When tannins are pressed polyphenols release from the skins, seeds and stems when they soak in the grape juice just after the grapes have been pressed and are what give certain wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, their characteristic dryness or astringency. ... We say a wine that is high in tannins is tannic.
Press on these tannins They're doubled in time The touch of life, once failed to mention so far -
*so seeing what tannins are we can come to a conclusion that he's speaking of pressing wine and doing it quickly I assume (doubled in time) to get the most out of the tannins (more wine), Jesus turned water into wine so I assume this is a reference to that.
I do believe it's the law of fountains as opposed to the la of fountains, cause "la" is a musical scale note so that would be no sense
As for the "the law is fountains" I googled what's the law of fountains and first thing that popped up was this Proverb -
The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. *So maybe that's what Chevelle was referencing, their lyrics are very intelligent and beg for deep interpretation normally, and that proverb makes sense with how they write their lyrics, so thoughtfully. Also teamed with the tannin interpretation I think it follows the spiritual element present in many Chevelle lyrics so it fits. So he's telling this person who's believes there way is the way and they're always right that maybe the path their on is the wrong one, they should go in a positive life affirming direction, not into the snares of death as they are seemingly headed.
