about

This track was written entirely by Tyler after indulging himself in copious amounts of Neutral Milk Hotel. He considers it to be one of the best he's ever written. The melodies were all on-the-spot.

lyrics

Once there was a drug
Could cure any sick mind
Could cure any sick heart
Was lethal injection
It came in a blowdart
Oh it's much fun
To watch the dog run
From grandfather's shotgun
Rusted guitar strings
Like useless old playthings
Fretboard like acid
Wish that I had did
That which you couldn't
If you would could you
Find me in the deep blue
Ocean of saltwater
Like someone's lost daughter
Going on nameless
Roaming the hallways
Be with her always
Never forget you
Wish that I had to
Forget what I had done
Although it seemed like fun
At the time, crazy
Perhaps I was lazy
Looking for wishes
Piling up dishes
My throat like a day-bed
One more pillow 'neath your head
Fruit for your basket
Sleep in a casket
Living in daydreams
Floating through soft cream
Beautiful golden locks
Pelted by hard rocks
Stoned like an infidel
Pray I won't go to hell
I always loved her
Never above her
Always beside you
Now I can't guide you
Searching at midnight
Stars shine like daylight
Shadows on stairways
Like daemons on airways
Kill you with static
They hide in my attic
And under your bedframe
No need to be ashamed
Critically acclaimed
Music and voices
And depressing noises
Come from my brain stem
Wish I could hear them
Where are you hiding
Maelstrom subsiding
Beer in a soup can
Wish I could see them
Thousands of bubbles
Popping, sans troubles
I wish that I could care
I can't find you anywhere
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Oh well, just screw it
I guess that I blew it
Blew it
