about

This was improvised on the spot.

lyrics

All these toys and rags
Would bubble up from the deep to the top
And I’d save them by wringing them
Over the sink
Carried on to more intense situations
Walking for two hours straight in one direction
Forcing myself to get a little more angry at work
There’s no wringing the excess

Wringing bands around my fingers
And wrists
Freaking co-workers out with my purple hands
And cause it repeats
For more, more, more, more than a day or two
Oh, when I’m asked about the list
I’m writing
I hide it and say there’s not much to do

And it’s believed

I just want to get across
That yes I’m an avid reader, buyer, patron of the lot
But only in what I first asked about
Oh, my interest will never spread a great length
Just further down the roots of what’s mentioned
And that’s when you’re deemed serious
And honestly very, very sick
And it’s believed
You’ve always believed

I want nothing to do with it anymore

And all I can think of is
How I don’t know what I want
Out of life or out of people
If others knew I would be thrown out of the steeple
Stoned quickly

Tight around the neck
But more importantly the whole boy

These rooms open to a narrow strip
Proving a crime had been committed
I’m heavily discounted
Cause in all honesty who jilts a lover?
In lieu of loathing
In lieu of loathing a friend
