lyrics

is it a city that you work in?
I’m not ever certain

sure, if it’s a steel pole, it might be a lamp post

so get yourself some real clothes,
buy yourself a go-pro

the world’s outside your window,
I’m sitting home by myself



you’ll forget about my problems
it makes you feel alright



now the punks down on van brundt st are busy with the daydreams

burning lots of sage, getting ready for the stage reading

long as they get paid, wonder “isn’t life amazing?”

when you meet someone real they just look at you like you’re crazy



oh, my my, and it happens all the time

still surreal that I’m alive to say the least



and your worth isn’t whole, it gets smaller each day

you’re at work, then you’re home on a bus or a train

and your words and your goals aren’t always erased

you can run, you can run it gets further and further away

so you start a conversation just to say some vain shit
sudden motivation, feeling so complacent
he could be enough but only when you’re fucked up
she could make you blush but only when you fucked her

sentimental excess

called a friend of mine, wasted

he knows a thing about regret



face it, more facts glisten in the bottle that you’re sipping

than you got up in your hat, underneath your intuition

like a trap star in the past, driving drunk on the lower level

you could use some help, man, don’t you think you’ll ever settle?



headed towards a home town existential breakdown

throwing out your phone, now I’m lying on the front lawn
a gin and tonic to vomit, or chronic alcoholic thoughts like a faucet

feeling psychotic - it’s symbolic!

me and the psych ward chauffeur are sitting in the courtyard

wonder if we’ve lost it, call us the bergen pines prophets

I don’t know where weeks went in September
but I’ve been looking, said I’ve been looking, I’ve been looking out for myself
