Alice in some other land
At the 80s show I saw your hand
It looked a bit like mine
We got fed, I slipped a cuss
I know it's just the two of us
And you sure don't mind
Bit my tongue to stop the urge
I dug my feet into the Earth
You look like a drug
Twice a week I'm at my best
Once a week I'll have no rest
He's really just a slob
Watching is better than living
Watching is better than death
Alright
You've got alright eyes

I mind when you don't say too much
Breaks my heart to know we're out of touch
Says it all when you don't have much to say
I mind when you look at me that way
I think its all just too much
Breaks my spirit when we say such and such
Says it all when you don't have much to say
I mind when it's this every day
I think that I'm better off instead
Going through film strips that linger in your head
So put back all the good things on the shelf
These video memories you made here for yourself

Good luck on this
Little war over stones and sticks
Things left better off said
Come October I'll mean what I did
No attempt to hear it out
I would build a monument
Just to knock it down
I'd send a ship to see
Just to see it drown
I'd build a hall of memories
To keep it all in amber now
Good luck on this
Afraid to think and miss
The written note in the rain
Gets hard to read and washed away
No attempt to parse it through
The bandit, the samurai, the priest, and you
Afraid to recollect and collect anew
I'd excavate the past to find
Amber of what I knew
Good luck on this
No time to reminisce
Don't want to learn from this bit
If I'm lucky
I'll just forget about it

The last year or two's been alright I guess
If you only count the people still involved in it
I've watched people come and I've watched people go
Most of it's my fault, at least that much I know
Copacetic channels for sending messages
They're being sent in order with trouble reading them
Or if they will or they won't, or they don't or they do
It doesn't mean that much to me to mean that much to you
Cause when the people I love just start disappearing
It's hard to find out just where you went wrong
If it's too late to say that I'm sorry now
Maybe I'll stop reaching out and I'll just stay down
But I'll smile and I'll laugh when I know that I can't
It's the way that I am and I wish I wasn't
Cause the people I love just start disappearing
And I can't help but think that I somehow caused that
I farmed my emotions as a stupid hobby
I wept to myself in a hotel lobby
This years been shit but it could get better
Depending on my mood, or tomorrows weather
Buy more things or feel a little less empty
Give up some dreams cause I've got plenty
Who needs hopes, dreams, or aspirations
When your whole fucking life is a big vacation?
Welbutrin was an Uber that I didn't pay for
Taking me to places that I couldn't ignore
If I eat myself alive am I a carnivore?
Leave a letter to my family; San Salvador
Cause when the people I love just start disappearing
It's hard to find out just where you went wrong
If it's too late to say that I'm sorry now
Maybe I'll stop reaching out and I'll just stay down
But I'll smile and I'll laugh when I know that I can't
It's the way that I am and I wish I wasn't
Cause the people I love just start disappearing
And I can't help but think that I somehow caused that
That's how it starts
We go back to your house
You check the charts
And start to figure it out

Tactics

I've tried every tactic I know
Every battle plan or show
To keep myself a piece of it
I spend my energy and waste
Another day, the bed in this place
New sheets can't change enough of it
And I drive through the streets in this town
Stranger in shining armor
How the damsel got up over it
And it doesn't matter to be waiting here again in the fall
And it doesn't matter to be waiting here alone at all
A single house in a city, no matter how big or small
Don't need a reason not to bother, I just won't bother at all
I've tried every tactic at bay
Tried to find the right words to say
To keep myself a piece of it
A moralist, I'm going to the dogs
Vignettes, I'm crossing into slogs
This Fabian hasn't jumped yet
And I drive through the streets in this town
Stranger in shining armor
How the damsel got up over it
And it doesn't matter to be waiting here again in the fall
And it doesn't matter to be waiting here alone at all
A single house in a city, no matter how big or small
Don't need a reason not to bother, I just won't bother at all
