lyrics

I feel fine.
I feel alright.
I feel like this all of the time!
Tonight fits my needs,
until I look at the clock.
I feel plain.
I feel insane.
I feel I'm missing half my brain.
Tonight slits a quarter-inch sleeve.
Salty corner of rocks taste empty.

My thoughts pristine, why don't you look?
Healthy, risky. I know they should
be something else, or else they could
be some kind of living carpet.

I feel quaint.
I feel restraint.
I feel my paintings are in bad taste.
Tonight is filled with weeds
fumigating a soft strategy.
I feel cold
and supple.
I feel that I'm unfashionable.
Tonight I can't even read
what the brightly lit screen is telling me.

My thoughts pristine, why don't you look?
Healthy, risky. I know they should
be something else, or else they could
be some kind of human tar pit.

My thoughts pristine, why don't you look?
