Inside Out


Digital fuzz in my ears And I'm blowing bubbles Watching them burst In mirrored sunlight This is what you get Take it from the bottom And tear it up to the top Such fractured intellectualism They call me a whore Because I inject dictionary entries They call me pissant Because I'm too idealist Paint streaks of black In the midday sky Corruption bred from innocence And innocence bred from naivety Ridicule my visage Insult my scientific method Reject my joy Inebriate my passion Deconstruct a lifetime Within mere seconds And it hurts so bad It hurts so bad Everything up is down Everything east is west Everything inside is out Everything so vile Drill holes in my head Let the demons out to play If it makes you happy Just watch me cry
