Modern Abrasive |
I’m on all fours crawling ‘round on a hardwood floor |
I’m searching for a contact lens |
I wish that I could say it’s the first time, but I just |
Fired off a message, said «It happened again.» |
And in between blind scans, I hold my face to my phone |
And beg the stars that it says that you’re typing |
A couple words of encouragement or at least understanding |
But, alas, all that I’m reading is nothing |
I’m focused on the way that you punctuate your sentences |
Not anymore! |
I hope it’s not too late |
I hope that you can wait a few more hours |
‘Til I get home |
How am I supposed to get through? |
While I’m here there’s not a lot I can do for you |
How am I supposed to go on? |
When the porch lights are all off and the shades are all drawn |
It’s a seven minute drive from the mall to the condominium we share without |
traffic |
But the tricky thing regarding that metric is that there’s literally always |
traffic |
I’m carsick |
I conjure up a primalesque scream from my seat |
Narrowed in on the hitch of a Tacoma |
So in the weeds with excuses that I don’t even notice |
That I’m swerving ‘cross the lines in the road |
I’m focused on the way that you punctuate your sentences |
Not anymore! |
I hope it’s not too late |
I hope that you can wait a few more hours |
‘Til I get home |
Why’re these modern embraces so goddamn abrasive? |
Modern abrasive, uh huh |
Why’re these modern embraces so goddamn abrasive? |
Modern abrasive, uh huh |
Well, it’s not quite what you wanted |
But all the I’s are dotted |
Be a pain in the ass to return now that you got it |
Oh, somehow you’ve forgotten |
War is over if you want it |
And it’s easy to see |
Throw the caution tape up on it |
The average human being lives for around 80 years |
80 years |
Chew on that |
Get back to me sometime |
