reasoned ambition, savvy investment plans
my worst nightmare consists of soccer moms and mini vans
i can feel it
coming up at me
sucker punched by a clock that will not stop ticking
one day i'll wake up
and tell you
all the shit in my head
well nothing was true
i will find a way, i will find a way
i will find my way
my advice to you is never count the seconds
misuse your spare time to dream of being legends
this always happens, this always happens
naive moments of clarity
grow up or get out
pick one
ideals are only
cute for so long
fuck you, you're wrong
but probably not
i'll do it on my own
i can feel it
coming up at me
sucker punched by a clock that will not stop ticking

you dress like you say you went to art school
charisma, solo cup, i know you
wind down, riled up, you chose to
can i change your mind
oh god i'm so behind
i grow tired of this paradigm
oh man you blew that
i can't stop second-guessing even before i know i'm wrong
keep up, you might run out of steam soon
kick back, relax, the seam's hewn
don't act like that, crash/bloom
counting raindrops, clicking my heels
hope the pain stops, three dollar meals
wait a second, for a second
can you act like it's not a big deal
drag my good will, it's fucking surreal
get my mind right, while you act like
i'll always be this way i know
come to terms with the lukewarm afterglow
hesitation, so impatient
it's not easy, this passage
still dizzy, dissonant
so impatient, so impatient
self-induced tough times
short on clever rhymes
what's your favorite way to waste your time
'cause i pass on grass pal
c'est la vie, your catchy anecdotes don't really mean a thing
can i change your mind
oh god i'm so behind
i grow tired of this paradigm
oh man you blew that
i can't stop second-guessing even before i know i'm wrong

all the ways to phrase a howl
reduced to distant sounds
channeled through a pundit's mouth
all the ways to frame a bark
it's a flame or it's a spark
it's not enough or it's gone too far
all the headlines you can't find in living rooms
and when we walk outside we are consumed
surgical grab within a mass reaction
left with only the means
to salt the land
with the sweat from our desperation
as they gas-lit the bloodletted
all the ugly stamped down but not out
what aging hands won't dare point out
those locusts ain't some thunderclouds
weather to their eyes so naturalized
come underground
dim the lights to see
the stakes are fenced in all around
every hand you raise
they'll break and bend your heart again
oh they'll use your pleas
but they can't use their broke machines

cancelled my internet
deferred my student debt
almost a fifth
to a new used car
it's easy to say it's easy
when it's hard to say it's hard
I looked them in the eye
just to say it's fine
we still have ten
left after rent
what's there to spend on
when you're nearly spent
angels that don't intervene
their sympathy
is a tapped oasis
we'll pay for a mirage
just to see
something happening
I guess I'll quit smoking but goddamn!
