lyrics
So we failed to locate a single version that seemed to settle the sight lines that broke immersion. Couldn’t topple the Jenga tower with a gun to my head. A stiff preacher delivered a video sermon of stiff sleepers whose empires succumbed to vermin while they bashed the alarm clock and dreamed they were anyone else.
I get so lost outside myself in the land of oversized pickup trucks and shuttle buses. Extra fee for satellite radio inside the rental. Make a scene to draw the line. Force the editor to jump cut. Man, just tell me where to sign.
God, I need a reaction. Let me know I’m on your mind. Suppose I need a distraction, but those are getting so hard to find. What if I lose my identity; desire to mumble incoherently? Believe you me! Well, that would be an unspeakable tragedy.
So on the way in, a mysterious Irish Setter leashed up to a bike rack asked me to pet her. Highlight of the day was laying a palm on her head. Can’t recall the more robust one—Delta 8 or Delta 9? Struggling to read the menu ‘til I gained a second sight. “Try our famous margaritas. They are brimmed with salt and lime. They are brewed in a huge cauldron where they freeze for several nights.”
God, I need a reaction. Let me know I’m on your mind. Suppose I need a distraction, but those are getting so hard to find. What if I lose my capacity for love, or trust, or breathing nicotine? Hissing machine. Now, would that be some unspeakable tragedy?
I cut off a motorcyclist near Knoxville while swerving away from a pile of roadkill. He banged on my window. World’s angriest guy. Repeating the phrase: “You’re stupid, I die.” I knew he was right, so I’m apologizing when he kicked the steed up and became the horizon. So I’m tumbleweeding, adrift once again. Think me and this stranger could probably be friends. The end.

I can't get enough of this album. Both polished and raw. Loud and soft. I was singing along so quickly to this one.
