Occam's Razor

Mysterious Sadness
That's what I get when I feel the secondhand embarrassment of something I used to do
Whether it was milk that was spilled or things that where said
I think I ruined multiple friendships that belonged to you
Your intention was offhanded and I think I took it personally
Just like I do with everything
The most likely outcome is probably what will happen
That was underlined in a textbook I once read
Occam's razor is what it said
How did my grandfather build a treehouse so tall by the sea?
Was it an eight foot troll lurking out of the woods and into his temporal lobe?
He built this house out of planks he found laying on the beach
It's all I have to show for
It's my prized possession
It's where my brother comes to sleep

And I'm sorry if I'm embarrassing
But I know now that not everything is about me
Seasons metamorphose while mythical creatures lay down in the grass to breed
And a woman, hallucinating, gives directions for a family
She led them down a path they were already going to take
She led them towards fear
If dimensions can collide, so can our heads tonight
It's like fighting in a war when you don't even know what you're fighting for
Reminds me of the drugs we took before that carnival ride
Reminds me of when I used to blush as a child
Reminds me of when I felt darkness for the first time
The most likely outcome is that I'm sad inside
And I don't need Aristotle to tell me that you're going to be fine
