lyrics

Well I woke from a fever dream last night in my new bed
I shouted to the star-light “Oh God, if I am dead
Please tell your angels to let me bed so that I may understand
In my own way”
And I fell back to sleep

Head was churning, stomach burning
Didn’t know where I was
Four AM and sickness forming mental static buzz
I flew around the room a couple times before I lay down to rest
And I fell back to sleep

I’ve been thinking about myself too much
I’ve been working way too hard
Control is all I’ve ever known
That’s why I’d rather see you when I’m stoned
That’s why I’m so impossible to know

Didn’t know for sure if I was here or I was there
A magic trick, the fleeting kick of morphine and the glare
Of all the heavenly architecture they built to care
For me in my sleep

I’ve been thinking about myself too much
I’ve been working way too hard
Control is all I’ve ever known
That’s why I’d rather see you when I’m stoned
That’s why I’m so impossible to know
