lyrics

I’m sick of the dogs

Barking at nothing

Although I relate

I’m a clog in the blogs

When I’m slashin’ the hype wheels

Turning to a dead end street

Or is it because

It’s not about me yet?

But they’ll see yet

The armor of jest

It protects me

When I need it

It’s all of the time

Especially these days

These days…



I’ve got non-descript rage

Against an indeterminate

Machine

And I know what I’m gonna do

But there’s no sense in telling you



Surrounding myself

With anyone open

Sometimes they only seem that way

Tell me your swipes

Are only joking

But I know you better than that

You aren’t release

You are attack girl

I’m barking up the wrong remedy tree

Because It starts with me



It starts with love

From me to me

If I can make you laugh

Will you set me free?

An unconditional love

I can’t give me

If I can make you laugh

Will you set me free?



How you gonna say

Everything’s OK

With a frown across your face?

You can’t convince yourself

Take it out on me

Defenseless as can be

Except for what I’ve learned

From tragic comedy



The chuckle boils

Inside your mind
