Lyrics

Holy shit I'm eating tofu, well that's it something's different. Cause on any other day I'd've told you, go take a look in the mirror and try not to call this all sorts of ridiculous. For some reason this vegan chicken bastardization tastes absolutely delicious. It's enough for me to step aside from my suspicions and rise up to the business of making smarter decisions. Yeah, it's a room fulla carnivores, what a bore and I'm the only stoic poet. Cause yeah I got heart I got soul God bless me but so help me if you ever catch me show it. Cause I'm smarter than to let my blood hit the water and let every clever predator know it. But now I've just begun chumming for someone, guess I better go and own it. Ok, here goes: oh God please don't let it be cliched trite or corny. Well we're not off to a good start my friend cause that line was mopey and this one over here's overtly horny. Oh God never has slowly going down in flames ever been this incredibly fucking boring. It's ok, kid, just take a deep breath and try to tell the story. There it was, plain as day right on a bright spot on my mirror. Something the like I'd've done for one I love when I was young and my heart and eyes were clearer. But I've anesthetized that side of my life cause time has gone and taught me so different. But when you shocked my heart right open I couldn't move for like 5 whole minutes for serious I was delirious cause nothin's ever happened to me like that in my ever loving bumbling experience. And all those years I was trying to find my heart, maybe it was never mine to begin with. I've always said I've yet to find a proper muse, but here I am, in a cafe called Muse, eating tofu, confused to why I'm not confused. Cause I know what I gotta go and do. And it's one thing to say, she feels the same way, and something different, in a whole 'nother universe to say she feels the same way. The same wires, the same gaskets the same blueprints cause the shoe fits it's fantastic and I'm proving it's all magic cause I knew it and I'm patiently waiting for the day when my aching for my favorite sensation is sated and we're saving the traces of fragrances on pillowcases it's amazing something changes when you taste it oh baby please, oh baby please don't you waste it. You make me wanna sing sweet thing.
