lyrics

Lithium leaves tiny circles ‘round the iris
Thanks for staring
For every tiny circle spoke
There’s two more circles left for pairing
In a matchbook wrote for losers
I fear the ones that I’ve been wearing
Cause I’ve been working on my eye contact
To live my life less daring

Shaving off years
I haven’t a thing to drink since last November
Since I vacationed to the fourth floor
Of your hospital, remember
I wasn’t looking for an exit as much as looking for a high place
Safe for jumping to conclusions
Just to fix the days behind me

Quaint and quiet as the west front
Pulling sharply at my impulse
To keep dreaming of an ending less tumultuous as
I convulse from all the anger bottled up from days behind me
Peering through the tiny circles
Back to the matchbook that set fire

Lithium leaves tiny circles ‘round the iris
Thanks for staring
For every tiny circle spoke
There’s two more circles left for pairing
In a matchbook wrote for losers
I fear the ones that I’ve been wearing
Cause I’ve been working on my eye contact
To live my life less daring
