about
(My therapist said I use humour as a defence mechanism
so I wrote her this song)
lyrics
It’s like taking the wrong bus and riding to the end of the line
Like being in the wrong place, right on time
Like a straight-to-VHS version of your life
Like reversing down the freeway at night
Like smiling when a man on the street tells you to smile
Like taking a wrong turn inside your mind
Like accidentally solving your own crime
Like it’s always the last 3 seconds of 1999
And nobody knows if we’re gonna survive
Like walking into the kitchen and forgetting why
Like walking into your life and forgetting why
Like breaking into a stranger’s house just to say hi
Like falling down an abandoned diamond mine
But it’s so dark you can’t see the walls shine
Like trying to make small talk with a mime
Like dashing before you’ve even dined
Like sleepwalking your way behind enemy lines
Like hitting on the dead when you visit their shrines
Like realizing you’re not on your own side
Like forgetting how to ride a bike
Like crashing into a no exit sign when you ask for a sign
Then losing in court and having to pay the fine
Like endlessly replaying the same line
Like writing a whole poem in half rhyme
And putting your own guts right in the punchline
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
Oh, why do I get the feeling I just might
slip right out of my mind tonight?
Oh, why do I get the feeling I just might
Not be inside of my only life?
Oh and how can I tell you what that feels like,
When my voice don’t sound right—it just don’t sound like mine
No my voice don’t sound right— it just don’t sound like mine
Oh my voice don’t sound right—it just don’t sound like mine
It just don’t sound right
It just don’t sound right
