lyrics

The Ska Princess sleeps on two-tone pillows.
We knew each other ever since we was little.
We were in love, but the chemicals wear off so fast. (Oh no.)

Showed her my book “The Sayings of Buddha”.
I lent her my Diamond Sutra.
Now every Neon and re-run’s tearing me apart.
(The tallest buildings make me so sad).

Maybe this summer I’ll see you at the pool.
I know you so well, but you look brand new.
Photo booth beauty I can’t bear to look away.
But baby we know all of life is cessation and pain.

I’ll be goddamned. I’m so sorry but my motor skills are failing.
My heart’s haunted and alien.
I’m no good, I’m no good, I knew it all along.

I wanna feel the sadness of leaving this planet.
You were my best times and I already had it.
My life from now on will be sad and tragic,
But It’ll be awesome too.

I’ve got newly evolved neuroses, a twenty-first century brain.
Sometimes I’m scared to death I’ll never be happy again.
I’m reverse paranoid, everyone’s conspiring
To love me but yeah I know that that don’t mean a thing.

Not human.
But I dunno what I am.
Ms. Bliss’s solo agent with a heart defiant?
The sole survivor of my nervous system’s riot?
She’s who I’d usually talk to about things like this BUT!

She said she wished she’d never met me.
And that she hates all our happy memories.
And when she left she quit taking her anxiety pills.
That’s pretty personal info.

Quantum girlfriend, she is as she’s observed.
All I got’s the chemical and these raw fucking nerves.
Wrestling tigers is a-tearing me apart.
Your bangs ethereal but only i can break my heart.
