The Hierophant

I collapse, in my car
This is why, this subtle trait
Live my DNA

Yeah, add up the contingencies
Count my fingers and toes
And I'm off by my own

Count
And I should understand why but I just
Don't

Read my
Magazines
Fan my
Information
Stare at a blank,
Sheet

Oh, oh oh oh...

Pull out a number, I don't call it, I say nothing
I'm keeping all the prizes for myself
I can just stall, kill as much time as I like
All night
All right, I'm up to bat and I strike out again
She says,
It all comes down to the electric shock
Putting all those thoughts in my head
Making impossible promises
Now I'm sleeping and eating, well, so I said

When I do arrive I come to find
I'm just too far gone for you to treat me
I've been running into that
A surprising amount now, lately
It all comes down to the electric shock
Putting all those thoughts in my head
Making impossible promises
Now I'm gonna try eating but I haven't yet

Oh, daylight comes so slowly

Daylight saved
The permanent efficacy of grace
Blowing smoke in my face
What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take to get me right
I can dream wherever I like
I can sleep wherever I like

Skipping breakfast, skipping lunch and skipping dinner
Tell me again
Which panel to watch
Which button to push
And then the MRI machine begins to buzz
Lecture me on my mistakes
Do your excavation
Dig around my ears and set me high

Oh, when I back away, to my surprise
Something clicks and flips a wire inside
And I cry

What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take
Take to get me right
What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take
Take to get me right
What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take
Take to get me right
What's it gonna take
What's it gonna take to get me right
To get me right

Oh, oh

She says it all comes down to the electric shock
All those thoughts in your head
Impossible promises
So I said
