Drunk in town! Am I lamenting too loud?
Breaking down, again.
Acting out, just averting my gaze
else I’ll fall in love, the same
Of all of my friends, I struggle to tell apart,
the adoration I have for a lover, and a platonic bond
I just want to be liked! see me as another sign, one that I can not
Is that alright?
Drunk in town! Am I lamenting too loud?
Spangled mind, again
Losing out, I spring burns in my bed
What is it I had said?
Of all of my friends, I struggle to tell apart,
The adoration i have for a lover, and a platonic bond.
I just want to be liked! see me as another self, one that I cannot.
Is that alright?
What is this impulse that leads me from him, to them, to you?
I think I’m confused, but I see everything and everyone and now I’m not sure
If I’m excited by the new? or if I am only truly me in that warm familiarity, A quarter language aside,
The vision of those brown eyes!
Hey!
Drunk in town! Am I lamenting too loud?
Breaking down, again.
Acting out! Just averting my gaze, else I’ll fall in love, the same!
Of all of my friends, I struggle to tell apart, the adoration I’d have for a lover, and a platonic bond.
I just want to be liked! See me another self, one that I cannot.
is that alright?

Feeling pretty good under cover.
If I told you I was out, I would say it was over.
Been thinking 'bout a time I was sitting here sober.
The comfort of my house is all I need in a lover.
It is a hard time going out with anxiety.
You got that voice in my mind preventing socializing.
It is the only one thinking the exact same thing.
I am looking at your party, not sure if I'm invited.
Sophie oh Sophie, you are out there on your own.
Sophie oh Sophie, you are here with an impossible drone.
Number 1 is enjoy yourself.
Number 2 is to offer help.
Find someone else by themselves.
Find another person on their own.
Number 5's forget about it!
You're the only person who will criticise.
Six friends talking on a crisp autumn night.
Have comfort in the fact that you're doing alright.
Six friends start talking 'round a crisp bowl at night.
Have comfort in the fact that you're doing alright!

I love the idea of a “sit down meal”
as though there exists the kind
where one must stand throughout.
Who’s doing that?
Because the top Pringle carries nothing
it knows not that it too is held.
An Escher drawing in sacred geometry.
Who designed that?
Point downward toward the ground and through to the other side
you’re pointing upward towards the sky.
Where water spirals round a direction I don’t recognise.
Comprehend that.
I am told to fill my boots but now it’s clear
That my feet no longer fit.
Where am I expected to put them now that my greed has set in?
Why tell me that?
It’s our hobby, it’s our hell
(We are doing well)
It’s our hobby it’s our hell.
It’s our hobby, it’s our hell
(We are doing well)
It’s our hobby it’s our hell
I love the idea of a “sit down meal”
as though there exists the kind
where one must stand throughout.
Who’s doing that?
Because the top Pringle carries nothing
it knows not that it too is held.
An Escher drawing in sacred geometry.
Who designed that?
