The Names of Things

How does this work?
What do I say?
To the machine today
Hey
This is me
I'm supposed to be
Leaving a message
I believe you
Are going insane

How does this work?
What do I say?
When everything's coded these days
And all of the words that I sent you get erased
I wish I could change your mind
I believe you
Are going insane

Put your good shoes on
Head out the window
It's time to go
I can't go with you

When we were young
We knew the tall ones
We lived in their caves
And they taught us
The names of things
Now we're older
And we're all the same

I miss the easier days
I miss the easier days
I miss the easier days
I miss the easier days

I believe you are going insane
I hope you come back someday
