headache- Pop two Advil But we can do better than that Down the whole Advil bottle with a handle of jack and whiskey throttle into the worlds atmosphere Stepping into the black hole that holds your life in fragments of their soul Speeding in the fast lane riding in a limousine When you’re the only passenger on board The moon may seem like a cool place to venture But give me the sun so I can sense what it feels like to be the center of attention and revolve into the shotgun of his heart To burn and no one says anything about it because that’s the way the cookie crumbles And no one knows how fresh that bakery is down the street on mars because it all tastes good so no one questions it That’s funny though, isn’t it? If everything is going as planned And nothing is wrong Life’s sweet memories taste sweeter than the last And there’s never a bitter taste on your tongue, or in your brain, No one questions it But as soon as the sun stops shining into your tinted limousine And the cookies aren’t as fresh as they used to be We get all fussy and bent out of shape and start trying to fit the wooden square into the circle imprint And wonder why the hell its not going in, Our brain matter turns into the static of that old tv And our eyes get flustered Things start looking fuzzy When we awaken after a long nights sleep and everything is blurry A morphine drip hanging above our bed inserted into our arm Anesthesia shoved needles into limbs look I get it We think we deserve better than the last “You can do better than that” But what if the last thing was the best thing And what if, it doesn’t get any better than that?

Better than that
headache- Pop two Advil But we can do better than that Down the whole Advil bottle with a handle of jack and whiskey throttle into the worlds atmosphere Stepping into the black hole that holds your life in fragments of their soul Speeding in the fast lane riding in a limousine When you’re the only passenger on board The moon may seem like a cool place to venture But give me the sun so I can sense what it feels like to be the center of attention and revolve into the shotgun of his heart To burn and no one says anything about it because that’s the way the cookie crumbles And no one knows how fresh that bakery is down the street on mars because it all tastes good so no one questions it That’s funny though, isn’t it?
