lyrics

lost in ideologies again
tripping over sentences i speak without an end
spaced-out epicurean fine arts degree
trade a life for life for life for another shot at the key

trying to save the world from a college dorm
always had the feeling i was chosen
pretentious turns-of-phrase turn to chasing words i ate
trade my lips for zippers and we’re talking
and i’m talking

nothing ever happens to me anymore
constant editorializing my own life story
everything exists because of previous becauses
because consequences never pulled me back, oh

i said it’s not my fault, it’s just my neurons firing on pretence
no one said this would be easy but it is
and to simplify is to complicate what’s already in place
and i don’t know what i’m saying but i mean it
oh i mean it

i said it’s not delusions of grandeur
……it’s just delusions of mine
