I wanna sit alone all day. Play with the friends that I’ve made in the privacy of my own room. Light blue, Naruto poster on the wall, but I can’t remember the plot. Oh god, what is this headache I get every time I fall asleep? Repeating patterns clutter my mind I cant remember, I’m just trying to unwind The fragments. Detatchments. Oh god. You know I’m trying to make this better. Inner self in shambles 'til I find a place for my thoughts, all my memories confused with trauma and closure pain versus pleasure. I wanna see today. Let me out and play. I’m sick and tired of this television screen I’m forced to watch. I wanna see today. Let me out and play. I’m sick and tired of this television screen I’m forced to watch. I wanna see today. Let me out and play. I’m sick and tired of this television. You know I’m trying to make this better. Inner self in shambles 'til I find a place for my thoughts, all my memories confused with trauma and closure pain versus pleasure. Blackout on a subway, nearly hit the A-train. Psychological disconnect With the walls that I built To break down these barriers of trauma and closure, pain versus pleasure.

Fireworks line my mother’s ashtray so if I ever decide to light up My whole world would go up in flames. What a shame, I worked hard for this place. Mother would give me cookies and cigarette burns to show me how much she loves me. What the hell, gimme that pack of Misty Lights. I’ll use the smoke to cover the mess you made. Settle down, lie back to bed. Let the screaming television send swirls of light into your mouth. Maybe it’ll teach you how to use it proud. But the fireworks are pointing right at me tips of blue and white and teal make my peripheral radar go off. And in the end I see a whirl and it’s getting me down.

I don’t wanna talk about talking 'Cause that’s boring and I’ll stand by that Yer gonna break that chair by rocking But that’s what it’s supposed to do And I believe in that, and I’ll die on that hill Yeah I'll die on that hill I'll die on that hill I'll die on that hill It’s not a far walk home but it’s just far enough and I’m sweating through my favorite shirt Yeah we need a boogeyman to blame for all this distress Because otherwise it’ll hurt, and I’ll feel like American dirt and it feels like... It just feels like American dirt and it just feels like American dirt and it just feels like American dirt and it just feels like American dirt!

The neologist inside me is taking some rest The bug that I’m squishing is beneath my feet It makes me feel guilty, they’re so much like me And if I was that useless pest I’d want you to think before you step on me Within the limited bounds of my brain I’m just a character I portray And if I were to stumble through the same fallacies I hope you would absolve me Before you step on me Contrary to common ignorance You can’t be judged for what you can’t rinse We were all once like that, on both sides of that coin

I broke my thermostat last winter So fuckin frigid where I’m at And I don’t know who to update When all my plans are falling flat Yeah I could really use a haircut Just couldn’t tell ya what I want And if I could spell it out I’d use the most confusing font I wanna crack my fuckin skull open just to see Where the wires lead, they’re not where they’re supposed to be I wanna cut my fuckin chest open just to see What happens when I breathe, when I’m too scared to peek
