lyrics

I' m made of stupid ideas
I' m full of piss and kerosene
I'm made of metaphors
but I Don't know what any of them mean

I'm full of shit and beans
My head is swole from all my dreams
each one is attainable
but attainable is not in my vocabulary

I could make a move but I'd never let it form out my mouth
I'm really trying everything is really bugging me now
Interrupted and corrupted when was young from the ground
I'm standing up but its hard to muster up this

I'm made of solid mass
I'm fully clothed laying in the bath
And I hope I don't have to try hard

I'm just splashing around
Years passing my by
I'll try tomorrow
But truth be told, I kinda hope I die.

I could make a move but I'd never let it form out my mouth
I'm really trying everything is really bugging me now
Interrupted and corrupted when was young from the ground
I'm standing up but its hard to muster up this

I'm barely making it
faking it while I stand here
these canned conversations
that I cant conceive
without my mind clear

Your minds eye
It's more minds ear
You are more fine
than I
And yet more molitovs
than mirrors

And this is
motion sicknesses
throwing up is limitless
the motive is to float
but it seems so dismissive



I'm talking grabby by the throat
greasy white guys with fake gang signs
Struggle never real
An apostrophe in the hang time

I'm getting lieu hours
painting abstract ponies with kids
your playing video games
and assuming this is it

You keep eluding to a quiet life
while violently lying about it
assuming you are so nice
but mostly
you are just crying out

I could make a move but I'd never let it form out my mouth
I'm really trying everything is really bugging me now
Interrupted and corrupted when was young from the ground
I'm standing up but its hard to muster up this sound

This specific sound.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

And I could make a move but I'd never let it form out my mouth
I'm really trying everything is really bugging me now
Interrupted and corrupted when was young from the ground
I'm standing up but its hard to muster up these sounds.
