lyrics

i recall the bitter taste of adderall
the smell of dust
and paintings hanging in the hall.
(and) those beatnik kids with such 'heavy opinions'
are aggressive with their assumptions.

and yet you sleep, but not peacefully.

you said you dreampt of seven of men around your bed
you slammed the door into his fist. that's what he said.
those stories you wrote? (they) didn't come without consequence.

you locked yourself in your apartment
climbed to the roof
and then jumped off it.
and when you landed you broke your ankle
and when you cried for help you couldn't find it.
when they came, they took you away to a place where i knew you wouldn't feel safe.
when i arrived your eyes said it all
but i was pulled aside to talk about it.
he said he knew me, but he knew my father.
i answered his questions (for) he was just a doctor.

and when i went outside there was snow on the ground
the lot was empty (and) i couldn't make a sound
she asked for a light
i asked for a smoke
she said "he'll be alright"
i said "i don't know"

you were the one to get me off my fight
you said you gotta start doing something
you packed your bags and clothes and hit the road.
and when you returned
you were dissociative.

i went home
my head hung low
i lit up another cigarette
