lyrics

I pull the window down
To cover up the sound of moving people
I turn the TV on silent
And stare into the mouth
Of everything I love that I
Can learn to live without
Despite the recent trend I feel
Stable enough for now

Posing naked can be habit
Forming after awhile
Try to focus on the red light
Try harder not to smile

Beneath the trolley line
You struggle to get comfortable enough to
Take care to put me down easy
And offer me a light as if you were
Offering last rights
The oil barely needs to touch my forehead
Despite the recent trend I feel
Stable enough for alright

For a universal genius,
You never feel so smart
As when you’re turning something
Degrading into art

In the scheme of things, if it were up to me
I would leave it all right now
In the parking lot I was paralyzed
When the car alarm went off
And you said to me, "Sometimes nothing
is the only thing I want."

You look closer from far away
