What to say, I'm just glad I stayed home
'Cause a day off's the way of this titanic mind
Coffee grounds look something like burial mounds
Heavy, black, steaming, and elephantine
Well, I'm weightless, pale, clammy, and impish today
I will float with the ghosts and scare people away
With unspeakable boilings and tearings apart
I've drowned in mathematics, now sleeping alone an art

All the junk I've consumed, it resides in a jar
An archive of my mistakes ever preserved in the stars
If I could live one day over, I've got one in mind

That someone would put up for so long
Now I guess it's so long again

Sometimes
There are people we hurt, yet they stay at our sides
But only sometimes
There are signs that some people don't want me around
Anymore
There are oceans of strangers and I think it's time that I
Went and drowned
If I could live one day over, I've got one in mind
Would've done it correctly if I woke up on time
Live one day over, I've got one in mind

Live one day over, got one in mind
Would've done it correct if I
"Your hand's flat, your hand's freezing," said the man in the mirror
Count on the girl of your dreams 'til they shear her
