| You’re taking up lots of space |
| Your shit is everywhere |
| Your breath is all up in my face |
| Your hands are swarming in the air |
| You’re the first one out the car and then |
| You’re the loudest one in the bar |
| Tell me, is there something wrong, girlfriend? |
| What’s with this new version of who you are? |
| So she lifts her chin and squints at me |
| To assess what I think I know |
| She says, my heart has some dangerous neighborhoods |
| So beware where you try to go |
| They say that the truth will set you free |
| But then so will a lie |
| It depends if you’re trying to get to the promised land |
| Or you’re just trying to get by |
| What is a camera but a box of light? |
| What is a guitar but a box of sound? |
| You think I don’t understand |
| But I think I might |
| What it is to harness the emptiness |
| And just ride it around |
| And maybe your chest is an empty shell |
| With ribs of spiraling coral |
| Where a perfect pearl of sadness resides |
| But if you ever need an ear |
| I could just come and press it here |
| Listen to the sound of the ocean inside |
