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
