Heavy Eyes

I'm sitting in the basement's deep end

There's literal static rising past my waist

I'm not drowning, feeling kind of cozy

Everything's wrong and it's keeping me awake

When I lay on my back it feels like an order

I can't force rest upon moist concrete slabs

All the shadows ignore me and move about the room

It all feels so basic because I'm so fucking angry

The lids on my eyes are made of liquid dynamite!

They weigh eight tons and refuse to hit the dirt

Now that I have the time, I can't seem to use it

I can't make anything a priority anymore

I'd like to meet myself some day, the real me

Beyond the fuzz and the mechanical shell

I remember me, I was probably a reasonable guy

The last time I saw me I think I was crying.



There's gaps between the many stages.
