lyrics

I’m gonna build a box today
I gotta get even with the itch that I’ve neglected the past two weeks
And I will probably hurt myself
I will probably call you for advice that I’ll ignore
Unless it’s something I already planned to do

And I’ll fuck it up
In a manic frenzy
I will strip the heads
My elevated heartbeat keeping time

I’m gonna die in a hardware store
My spirit will wander the aisles
And pull down all the chains and chicken wires
And the shoppers will lose their minds
With tiki torches they’ll coalesce in a vengeful mob
To burn it down
But I will never learn to self-rely

And I’ll catch your eye
As I spill the sawdust in the cracks
And your face tells me what I didn’t want to know:
That you have to go
