You know when you can’t sleep all night, and your screaming in your head in frustration, but your body is coiled up with tension… Yeah that… And then ten minutes before you alarm goes off after you have checked the time every five minutes for six hours … You fall asleep… That… Then the alarm goes off and you spring out of bed like its on fire …. And try and figure out how to get through the day …. That… Then you walk outside to drive to work… in this…
And by the time you get to work… the temperature changes have made your windshield look like this….
(I like to think its smiling at me)
Makes the perfect day for a song like this….

Much Love!
burn the books they’ve got too many names and psychosis
all this incriminating evidence would surely haunt me
if someone broke into my house
suits in the living room
do you realize guys I was born in 1974
we’ve got someone here to explain your publishing
we know how much you love to be in front of audiences
hopeful you are
schoolbound you are
naive you are
driven you are
take a trip to new york with your guardian
and your fake identification
when they said “is there something anything
you’d like to know young lady?”
you said “yes I’d like to know what kind of people
i’ll be dealing with”
precocious you are
headstrong you are
terrified you are
ahead of your time you are
don’t mind our staring but
we’re surprised you’re not in a far-gone asylum
we’re surprised you didn’t crack up
lord knows that we would’ve
we would’ve liked to have been there
but you keep pushing us away
resilient you are
big time you are
ruthless you are
precious you are
