How do I explain electrical impulse my brain ignores
To sing off-key melodies
Sound-free harmonies
That linger for a while and then die
I wanna stay up
Every night is another happening
Every morning's the same old tragedy
I wake up hit the alarm and then die
Kiss the dream goodbye
Though all the while the joker's wild
He's run off too blind to see the ace, the jack, king and queen have all gone insane
The game plays out in my head then it dies
I wanna go back in time
Drink and drive 'til I wreck the time machine
Preach to the choir and they laugh and laugh
And we'll make up for lost time when we die
Kiss the dream goodbye
Time ?ies
Blink your eyes
And it's gone
It's hard to put a ?nger on
The voice inside your mind keeps saying theres something wrong
You try to wrap your brain in gauze
The glitch in the design could be whats giving you pause
I'm on a musical plain thats a half step short of a whole note's rest
In the modes: Mixolydian, Aeolian, Phrygian...
When woods run out of wind do they die?
I wanna stay up
Every night is another happening
Every morning's the same old tragedy
I wake up as I hit the ground and then...
It's hard to put a ?nger on
The voice inside your mind keeps saying there's something wrong
You try to wrap your brain in gauze
The glitch in the design could be what's giving you pause
Sit back and let the pieces fall
You open your eyes wide and you see nothing at all
You try to wrap your life in gauze
The pieces you can't ?nd could be what's giving you pause
