about

i was crying, and alone, and in a bowling alley

lyrics

lithographic, bleeding
pigments, on my skin
and in my veins
permanently, staining,
laughing, you make me feel loved today

public places make my skin crawl
i thought you'd have figured that out by now
and the fog machine is
blurring your words but i
think you said
"feel better and i

think you're insane
i think you're insane
and you're letting me down
and you shouldn't say never
and your brain is all fogged
with clonaze-whatever"

please stop smiling at me

don't have enough for a cab
and my face is reflected in my left hand
and they're calling my name but
it's all through one ear
and i think im insane
i think im insane

and the voice in my ear says
"you can do better
i promise you dear
you should never say never
you can go for a smoke
please just assure me
this isn't the last time
you'll be talking to me"

please stop smiling at me
