lyrics

Two A.M.
On a Tuesday
Watching stars fall
Like snowflakes
New ideas
I’ve got a buffet
But a hunger strike
Keeps the dreams away

Paid for first class
Stuck with nosebleeds
A new perspective
Let’s see where it leads
A bird’s eye view
Of misdeeds
Comes crashing down when
The sun impedes

The kids scream, “I’ll burn out,
Before I can fade out
‘Cause at this rate there’s no doubt
In a few years I’ll sell out”
The elder shakes his head
Says, “you’re saying what I said”
The ouroboros eats itself again
It’s a dead end, just go back to bed

A chronic cough
Jerk-off
Went and shot a little kid’s
Head off
And for some reason
They don’t know why
It didn’t even crack
Local headlines

And sexual
Predation
Is the hot new
Occupation
For all the stars
That you look up to
But you swear on you life
That it’s not true

So goodnight, melancholy
I’d love to chat, but I’m sorry
I can’t stay up much longer
Scheming ways to make a stir
And you know that I loathe you
But I can’t do much without you
So stay sweet, melancholy
When you get some good news, you can call me
