Never mind I can’t feel you
I wasted all my time moving around
Well you had to flee
Far away from your troubles
Oh, you had to be
Much lighter than it all
My mind lives in a heavy place
You know only satisfied with ceilings
But there’s a dampness
Leaning in my basement
And it’s affecting how I’m feeling
It’s okay though it really is
While the dark is still outside
And my glue is sticking still
What comes unstuck and
Keeps my mind inside
It changes quick though
And there’s a range of shit so
You better be ready
You feel your lips fall
As you turn to bricks
All of your friends and life
Seem to disappear
Cause in the end
Does the way you think or
Feel about it really change anything?
So why do you keep trying?
Why don’t you just give up
And never mind
Never mind
Well the rain now
Well it came down
Right on the same clown
Yeah that he is
Well the rain now
Well it came down
Right on the same clown
Yeah that he is
Never mind cause I can’t hear you
And he’s chased away mostly all of your sounds
But anyway I knew this would happen
Cause I spent my life looking down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Now I don’t know why
But I keep believing I’ll wake up
And tomorrow will be better
I do my best every day but fail
Because every tomorrow is like today
Down to the letter
And have I really given up?
Tell me who is it that keeps on asking
Cause I know that I have
I’m just over this complex routine
Like a tired ballerina who tries to keep on dancing
Oh, and don’t remind me that I slept fine
So I don’t know why
I feel like a fucking bag of shit this morning
My whole body trembles
My legs and arms ache
Was it all just for me to get an idea for these lyrics?
That’s funny but Jesus Christ really?
For fuck sakes
Why don’t you just give up and never mind
Half of what you need
It will be gone in a day
Half of what you see
It will be blurry someday
Half of what you had yeah
Will be having half a laugh
At what you see until it’s
Gas and it is floating away
Until I can see you
I won’t know what to say
Until I can be you
I won’t live in that way
Scattering the ashes of the
Already burned matches
Is all that I can do
Just to get out of the way
Half of what you need
It will be gone in a day
Half of what you see
It will be blurry someday
Half of what you had yeah
Will be having half a laugh
At what you see until it’s
Gas and it is floating away
Never mind these feelings
That I’m having today
Never mind the ceilings
They just get in the way
Never mind the reasons
That I give myself to feel
How will I ever fucking make it
Until the end of the day?
Yeah!
