lyrics

you lived in subdivisions and roundabouts
i sped down country roads and called my shot when i was drinking
i think your life is good and you are unaffected
i think my life is ok without a center

either openly displayed or obscured by bricks
stretch your legs rip your stockings standing up on tip toe
thank you for your compliments i don't feel so heady
thank you for your mirroring i'm not reflecting anything

i tried hard i couldn't look at myself
saw you
wanted to be anyone else

keep the windows cracked and circulating
layers lifted nightly follow falling fast and fading
lay or lie down and lying speculating
i caught the worst case of tuberculosis you have ever seen

i'm on fire i'm on fire i'm on fire
soaked sheets
there's a train in my chest

but i don't have a boss i don't deserve a mention
i don't have a real wish and i don't feel so tender
i misplaced my lenses i seared off my tension
congealed in restraint i chase no withering

and cramped in my beliefs i might as well go follow
i may as well not follow cycle back and forth tomorrow
