Flightless bird

"All day long, I felt like
Smashing my head through a clear glass window
But instead, I went out
And smashed up a phone booth around the corner

I never had the chance to choose my own parents
I never knew why I should be stuck with mine
Mommy's always trying not to eat
And Daddy's always smelling like he's pickled in booze

Am I going crazy, or is it just you, Daddy?
Am I going nuts, or is it just you, Mommy?
Am I plain gone, or is it just the world?
Daddy, I'd rather have you dead than crazy"

"You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
for a little peace of mind"

" I don't love anything
Not even christmas
Especially not that
I don't love anything

No, i don't love anyone
Maybe my sister
Maybe my baby brother too, yeah
I don't love anyone"

"Know that I see you
Know I'm not there"

"Its a beautiful world we live in
A sweet romantic place
Beautiful people everywhere
The way they show they care
Makes me want to say
Its a beautiful world"

"Some roads are only seen at night.
Ghost roads, nothing but neon signs.
But some nights the neon gas gets free-
Turns into walking dead like me"

"Nothing, we're doing nothing
just sitting and wondering why nothing's happening"

"down here
you just never know
down at the creepshow
down at the creepshow"

"Think about stories with reason and rhyme
Circling through your brain.
And think about people in their season and time
Returning again and again"

"Maybe somewhere I could be free.
Somewhere they won't throw rocks at me.
Somewhere this crazy hair could be my crown.
But all my life,
I've looked all over town."
