I fell asleep so drunk and dreamt of you My heartbeat woke me Pounding loud I'm not comfey now Lets curl up in the corner of the couch again Keep on crawling closer to the end A plot again Too tired I'm going back to bed Small steps Everything will be fine

I'm wearing gloves I've never seen the world Moving quick across it's surface Feeling fine Knowing I'm in motion Oh my motion makes me feel so stoked and That meaningful emotive moment It is good enough But is it good enough A minute afterward? I've never seen the world And fuck these stupid gloves

Everybody grows a beard eventually Soon enough shaves it off Builds a time machine Draws a bunch of cartoons Takes cold showers Loses their awareness Acts like a camel Then they grow a beard again And forget that they grew it out the first time They never did Yeah they think they never did "Between all the important parts of their life, illustrated above and below, they wake up every morning with a thousand knots in their back only to lay in the sink and turn the hot water on, letting it pour over them. Doing nothing to help, but feeling better than terrible. They spend the days carrying microwaves in their backpacks but seldom use them for anything other than checking the time or getting cancer. They don't sing about any of it because their health and truth are meaningless, whereas all the things that shouldn't be meaningful are meaningful enough to sing over a dumb little song they wrote. But love is rightfully meaningful, and although it might seem they're singing about nothing, they're singing about love. A beautiful vague love. So everyone continues looking, talking about nothing, singing about it, and eventually finding it." Everybody shaves their head eventually Soon enough grows it out Throws away their couch Plans another road trip Takes on Sephiroth Thinks about what they should've said to their crush Then they shave their head again And forget that they shaved it off the first time They never did Yeah they--never did

I'm sure I lost the whole plot When I read pages of white I kept on reading this book Though I didn't bother writing it Instead I guessed what happened I'm sure I grew a beard, shaved my head Like everybody does As a "hit rock bottom" protagonist And I'm not looking for a symbol Just the horizontal scene Of the widest smiles in the world And when you drifted off to sleep "What made your heart beat loud?" I wondered "What was in your dream?" Now every silence I feel I need to feel your heartbeat And put on fruitylicious lipstick So when we kiss it tastes sweet If I ever find your soul again Will it still be sweet and kiss me?
