The Burdens of Being Upright

You ever wasted a night?
With all the lying there
Spent with people you'll never really know
Don't mean I know what's right
Not sure who'd really care
Cuz there's no wrong beneath the artificial glow
So raise a glass
Your eyes are glazing fast
Being lit like this there's no contrast
But somehow the picture's never been so clear

You'd maybe call them the spins
I'm slightly out of phase
Squiggling but still between the lines
Watch how it all begins
In these days of daze
Vibrate independent of the tines
What did you miss?
I always take the piss
Don't call it sad, though it's not quite bliss
But a true vision's what I might fear

You know how hard it is to stand
When everything's a blur
Must be the burdens of being upright
Don't mean I need a hand
I've never been so sure
I've been evading you to save us from a fight
Fine let's go
You always know
How to start a role
To stop the show
But it's all been downhill since the premiere
