about

My philosophy of life, speaking as a shy person.

lyrics

Handfuls

You go to that place too much
But never get quite drunk enough
To pull yourself out of yourself

Start by being cynical
You'll wind up an asshole
All alone texting at the table

Tact's never gotten me far
Only so many bed's in the hospital
Start on those people over there
They're as bored and ugly as you are

Try to have a good time
Forget what's on your mind
Sing and dance for a while
Although it's so painful

Recipes for falling down
Are in short supply
I've got handfuls

You've got to be rude politeness won't do
Tomorrow we die fast or slow we can't rely
On miracles of science to prolong this boredom
Don't hide your pleasures where you can't find them

Night fever's coming on your brain's useless in the dark
Hold something now tight enough to make sparks

Meteors are streaking volcanoes are exploding
You'll be preserved in stone picking your nose
No matter how desperate you are there's someone lower level
Who admires your clothes

There’s a saying at the cemetery days above ground are good days
Soon we'll be going so say what you're gotta say
