Paper Bag

My brain keeps thinking of
Worst case scenarios
There's no room for thoughts or wisdom
That's why they call it a nervous system

Screw your meditation, self-help books and contemplation
It's too late for swimming lessons once you're in the sea
And there's no peace for me

Shallow breaths and a tingling sensation
I'm smiling but it's all just a drag
Throw away the champagne and the caviar
What I need is a brown paper bag

I keep turning, looking behind
But there's nothing but the back of my mind
Feeding me with the worst advice
My own misdirection device

Check out the latest invention
Another way to steal your attention
Addicted to hyperbole
Satisfaction guaranteed
And there's no peace for me

Shallow breaths and a tingling sensation
I'm smiling but it's all just a drag
Throw away the champagne and the caviar
What I need is a brown paper bag

Close your eyes and count to ten
Say none of this is happening
Close your eyes and count to ten
This can't be happening
Again

Shallow breaths and a tingling sensation
I'm smiling but it's all just a drag
Throw away the champagne and the caviar
What I need is a brown paper bag

Because I can't breathe
