Used to make it complicated
Like a hamster spinning round
She taught me how to pause
And to slow it all down
She taught me how to live
With the stillness of a flower
She created a world
Where a minute was an hour
She taught me how to feel
She intensified my view
Until nothing else mattered
We were a nation of two
She taught me how to live
Without giving a care
She taught me how to breathe
When there wasn’t any air
She taught me how float
At the top of the sky
Then she disappeared
And I learned how to cry

He says his marriage
Is really a jail
I could rip her to shreds
With my fingernails
Someday he’s gonna be all mine
Says he loves me all the time
She doesn’t even know
Who he really is
Would’ve left her long ago
If it wasn’t for the kids
Someday he’s gonna be all mine
Says he loves me all the time
She’s a bitch and a hag
And a vampire shrew
She’s never gonna love him
The way I do
Someday he’s gonna be all mine
Says he loves me all the time
My life would be perfect
If it wasn’t for her
That spoiled little bitch
With her diamonds and pearls
Someday he’s gonna be all mine
Says he loves me all the time
Waiting just see him
Anytime I can
I’m never gonna stop
Fighting for my man
Someday he’s gonna be all mine
Says he loves me all the time

Constant crisis
That’s what
Life is
My soul is overbooked
My brain is overworked
My synapses are frazzled
I’m about to go berserk
Numb to everything
But trauma
Cultivating melodrama
Every time I turn around
Something hits the fan
The universe collapsing
It’s more than I can stand
Buried in catastrophe
I spend my life
Avoiding me

You’re saying you’re a dumbass
When you’re ragging on your mate
You’re the one who picked her
It’s not a cosmic twist of fate
You’re saying you’re a jackass
When you complain, complain, complain
You act like such a victim
Like your marriage was arranged
You’re saying you’re a loser
When you say she treats you wrong
Do you wanna live your life
In a sorry country song?
You’re saying that you’re helpless
Cuz she don’t love you any more
Like I should draw you a map
To help you find the door

Seven little words built the blade
Twisting like a steak knife
In my heart
I really like you for a friend
(I always knew this thing would end)
Seven little words that never fade
Echo like a foghorn
In my head
I really like you for a friend
(Now I have parties to attend)
Seven little words my hell made
Tearing like a buzzsaw
At my soul
I really like you for a friend
(It was amusing to pretend)

Known you for five minutes
And you’re all about my bizness
You’re the type of guy
Who can never a hint
You say I looked your way
But ya know I really didn’t
All up in my Kool-aid
You won’t even let me breathe
I never showed an interest
Now you’re calling me a tease
You give a lot of orders
But you don’t respect my borders
Asking bout my family
Asking bout my kid
Every place I ever been
And everything I did
A girl has got a right
To be left alone
You’re six feet tall
So act like you’re grown

Everyone wants to be Cary Grant. Even I want to be Cary Grant.
—Cary Grant
You won’t find you truth
In me
You can’t live
My biography
You might admire
Celebrity
Too bad it’s
All illusory
Life is short
The world is cold
Try to love
Someone you know
I could never
Warm your soul
Or make you happy
When you’re old
I don’t say this
To be mean
I’m just a flicker
On a screen
Don’t live
Imaginary scenes
Go outside
The grass is green

I lived a big lie
I was afraid of myself
Spent my time thinking
About everybody else
When you live a big lie
The little ones will follow
Till your brain short-circuits
And your insides are hollow
I couldn’t take your love
Too much beauty and truth
I blamed it all on you
And I squandered my youth
When you live a big lie
The little ones will follow
Till your brain short-circuits
And your insides are hollow
I’m rebuilding myself
Feeling better every day
Maybe we can get
A cup of coffee someday
When you live a big lie
The little ones will follow
Till your brain short-circuits
And your insides are hollow
