You change your mind almost as much as you change clothes So let's settle down and figure out this situation And we try new things to see if our bodies were paying attention And we try new foods to see if our taste buds were paying attention They were so acute I don't need your diagnosis And I don't need your extroversion To know I'm not perfect And I'm taking this one problem at a time It's not an imbalance in hormones but in chemistry We never learned to balance those equations And one day this body will fail me Perhaps a symptom of my intolerance to catalytic changes It's all in my head, a psychosomatic chain of consequences One might call disorder. I'm not afraid anymore of where I'll be some years from now "Choice Cereals" is forever. And I don't need your diagnosis And I don't need your extroversion To know I'm not perfect

You might think it's nuts; don't be so quick to presume I'm down with the stream of consciously unconscious stigmas tied to degrees and separation like some bitter apathy holding me back when I'm awake enough to pounce (to show you how to dance right) And it's easy to fall down the stairs after a spin or two And it's easy to concentrate in retrograde But I digress Curb your OCD like you curb your hunger and attitude, purged on a midnight laugh, a panic attack, or dreams of invading your (wrong) doppelgänger's drawers Decide for me which flavor is best And it's easy to fall down the stairs after a spin or two And it's easy to concentrate in retrograde And it's difficult to talk in two straight lines Nothing can go wrong today; I said it therefore it's true. And it's easy to fall up the stairs when you're awake And it's easy to fall back down when you're asleep And it's easy to concentrate And it's easy.

And we once met in the parking lot outside the convenience store We stayed there And we once slept in the parking lot for hours And what we left Might stay there forever And what we took will stay with us As I angrily count the dots on the ceiling The dots count me back Geometry spitting at me as if I'm responsible For its incongruence I'm counting the ladybugs on my floor And they angrily count me back And with a "splat" I dissolve the ladybugs' tenements And the dots on the ceiling dissolve my own. And we once met in a parking lot outside the grocery store We stayed there for hours Timed seemed to stand still If only for a moment

So no that we're alone Tell me all your secrets Abandon your skepticism And now that we can dissolve Caution is the sun, and it's setting Start again And you are not to blame for My misgivings It's not the end of "we" It's temporary So take all of me and wrap it up Tin foil in a shoebox under your bed There's just enough Remember life for what it gives And not what it takes We'll echolocate

We grew up in the backs of cars We grew up in the backs of yards No shoe displaced on the dashboard Or fairy tale unimagined And somehow Nostalgia sits so far out of reach Today is wonderful They tell you you shouldn't eat your feelings; Concerning the matter, I feel nothing. And don't erase the parts of yourself you're too afraid to forget And stay up all night Make fire out of window pane And tie it in a knot just to prove you're able They tell you not to spit in the dirt But when the dirt spits back You'll sit idly by and rearrange And I feel nothing for once. They say you shouldn't eat your feelings; Concerning the matter, I feel nothing. I feel nothing.
