CAR ALARM
WAS THIS ALL BY DESIGN?
WAS IT COORDINATED TIME?
FELT WORTH IT TO MENTION,
THE WORLD STILL MOVES
WHEN I DON'T PAY ATTENTION
CHOKE TO SAY I'M DOING WELL
AMONGST THE BUZZ OF THIS STRIP MALL HELL
BLUE HUM OF THE LIQUOR STORE
IT’S HARD TO ENVISION MORE.
COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TRAFFIC
WHEN I'M PART OF IT
LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM
WHEN I'M THE ONE WHO STARTED IT.
EVERY DAY I WAKE UP THE SAME.
WHAT IS THIS FEELING I’VE CARRIED FOR SO LONG
BLARING INSIDE A BROKEN CAR ALARM?
IT FELT SO TOXICLY PRECISE,
I NEED AN OPEN FIELD TO SCREAM.
WALK THROUGH THEIR IMAGINED WORLD
IT'S BARBARIC, ITS A SCHEME
WE HAD EVERY CHANCE TO CHANGE
AND WE BLEW IT SOMEHOW
I THOUGHT WE KNEW BETTER BY NOW
I THOUGHT WE KNEW BETTER BY NOW
WHAT IS THIS FEELING I’VE CARRIED FOR SO LONG
BLARING INSIDE A BROKEN CAR ALARM.
CONVINCE MYSELF IT'S ALL PRETEND
I'M CRAWLING, I'M BUILDING - IT'S COLLAPSING AGAIN.
COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TRAFFIC WHEN I'M PART OF IT
LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM
WHEN I'M THE ONE WHO STARTED IT.
EVERYDAY I WAKE UP THE SAME.
