I lose myself
In beautiful things
Does a butterfly die
If you tear off its wings?
It’s not jealousy
In the classical sense

I’m black and blue

They don't know what they believe
So we stare and nod as they think out loud
Trying our best to fit in
As we fight for breath in this stifling crowd
And the time races by when you're having some fun
But it's plodding along now at quarter to one
As the night tries our patience we're hitting a wall
I slip off to the side like I'm taking a call to observe

Nothing changes in the day by day
But then we look back
And nothing is the same
What do we cling to at the last?

Boring stories of foolish acts
Enlarged and embellished
Sealed and vacuum-packed

Looking at the floor I declare
I can't go on wasting all my time on you
Trying to ignore your despair
As tears splash down
Naming every flaw of yours
Like a grocery list

I never felt the way that you feel

We're private in public
As everyone stares down at their tech
It's hard not to notice
The neon cord dangling from my neck
But somehow this less than subtle clue
Appears to have no effect on you

Don't want to talk right now

Imagination is powerful stuff
It can get ugly
It can get rough
Sometimes I dream horrible things
Just to try on how they might feel
To see what reactions I can reveal

I want to know

You said, "I'm sorry if I misinterpreted you."
"I guess I overanalyzed."
But I'm an idiot and you were right all along
It's me who should apologize
We kept the stars awake confessing everything
'Til there was nothing left to say
And then you turned to me your eyes halfway to a dream
What kind of man would turn away?

The silence sets in toward the end of the day
When the ringing in my ears dies away
Time to slow down
A chance to reflect
Let's share a toast
An exercise in disrespect

To each shooting star that broke its promise to me

Spent a lonely day on an empty street
Perfect hideaway for a New Year's Eve
Spent a lonely year at ambition's grave
But I'm free and clear on New Year's Day

And I wonder where you've been
Where we're going all this time
In these same old shoes

I brush my teeth
And put the book I'm reading
Back on the shelf
Then dial six numbers on the phone
Before I catch myself

For the first time in seven months
I can go straight to bed

Grew up absorbed in New Age schemes
Astral projection and lucid dreams
Believing every word I read
How you could leave your body in your bed and
Explore the world invisibly
Just think of all the things that you could see
The answer key, the locker room
Turns out the book author was sniffing glue, but

I spent a lifetime chasing shadows
Haunting the space where two lives crossed
Just when the sun was in alignment
The clouds came in and all was lost

I thought I would leave you too
And say, "This is it, we're through"
But then I saw the dark

At 2 p.m. she eats a late lunch by design
So that she'll have some self-control at dinnertime
Not much at all gets done on Friday afternoon
So who would mind if she should leave a little soon?
The welcome breath of open air
The daily driving regimen
Talk radio to fill her head
Until the exit's missed again

Have you chosen?
Or are you still frozen?
Your smile is out of season
Still you're all I can believe in
If your cold heart can beat in the sun
If your winter can ever be won
Melt the ice that's between you and me
Be the girl you intended to be

It sometimes seems
My dreamer's dreams
Are downright laughable
I shrug my shoulders to the world
Questioning my every syllable
You always understand
And take my hand so naturally
When I don't trust myself

Overtime
Home by nine
Watch TV to loosen up my mind
Pay the bills
Earn a wage
Just enough to keep it all the same
Somehow life slips away
Good or bad it's just another day

What you said was too rude to repeat
What you said made me squirm in my seat
What you said was a showcase of wit
What you said was a box office hit

So you think that you're above me
Well you're obviously high
So you think that you can snub me

In this rhythm me and you
In this rhythm me and you
Watching ones and zeros flow
Through this sonic scene we drew
Shape is sound and sound is mood
All emotion crystal clear
Layered sine waves speak to me
Like a voice inside my ear
