lyrics

my feet are a definite maybe
we’ll see if they
can handle the weight i’ve been carrying lately
that voice
been telling me it’s a bad choice
been jumping through hoops to stay stuck in my loop
and cancel out that noise

i’ve been living with flexible definitions

why would i try to learn it again
when i can watch how it ends on television?
why try to clear my conscience and mend
when my conscience can end on television?

i’ve been trying to view life as more than a joke
(i’m not buying it. i’m not buying it.)
finding joy in the things i can‘t drink & can’t smoke
it’s okay, at the end of the day i am only a ghost
and now i’m driving around taking lives
for a newspaper headline at most.

i’ve been living some flexible definitions
i’ve been making some lively projections
and i’ve been learning my lessons

why would i try to learn it again
when i can watch how it ends on television?
why try to clear my conscience and mend
when my conscience can end on television?
it’s a bit ominous to just exist in the audience
can’t wait to be with my friends on television!

who would‘ve guessed that the end would commence
without a whimper or a bang
just a studio audience?
nobody guessed that the end had commenced
without a whimper or a bang
just a studio audience
