lyrics

i’m watching my life with the motion smooth on
it’s supposed to look real but the frame rate’s all wrong
and everyone’s mouth moves a little too fast
i made camp in the uncanny valley i guess
what a mess

and i saw the world from the saltiest trench
said if i’m gonna drown let me drown in suspense
but i think our submarine surfaced too fast
the nitrogen sickness ain’t much like the gas
what a laugh

i think i’ll dig til i hit radium
or whatever might do me some harm
if i’m a cautionary tale
it’s an afterlife after all

now i got the shakes like a priest laying hands
i guess i get dizzy from standing a chance
i see the floor of the church rushing up to my face
and the carpet’s too thin here to soften the pain
what a shame

think i’ll dig til i hit ancient walls
or whatever else makes me feel small
if i’m a footnote on the page
it’s an afterlife after all

but i’m just a kid leaning back in his chair
she’s saying 'that’s not very safe is it dear?'
she warns me 'the legs are gonna snap
and you’ll tumble straight back'
hit my head on the wall
so my vision goes black
and i won’t make it far
past the crowded ER
and my friends will all gather
at some shitty bar
they’ll try to talk about me
but it’s thanksgiving eve
and this place is too loud
and no one wants to scream
so they’ll call it a night
and they’ll catch early flights
maybe think about me
just a couple more times in their life
that’s alright
