Dissociation

Dissociation
In a weighted vest, you sit on the carousel of your top regrets
As you miss what you haven't missed yet
The disconnect from what you feel and what comes through the lens
As you mistake your past for present

Another day another tally mark
You ran out of wall to count days on

Meanwhile I'm in outer space
I'm having a conversation across the table
But I'm underwater
I'm making small talk about the weather
But I'm in the clouds
With a manakin left in my clothing
I'm behind the curtain
I'm pulling strings in dissociation

I'm out of office, told myself I went out for cigarettes
But im finding a perspective that I can live with
Your distant eyes look in reverse and into your mind
While you're sleepwalking into traffic

You're doing a human impression
Good thing you got cheat notes on your hand

Meanwhile I'm in outer space
I'm having a conversation across the table
But I'm underwater
I'm making small talk about the weather
But I'm in the clouds
With a vacancy up in my hotel
I'm behind the curtain
I'm pulling strings in dissociation
I'm pulling strings in dissociation
Yea I'm pulling the strings
Again, but this time with feeling
In this wax figure museum
I look exactly like him

Meanwhile I'm in outer space
I'm having a conversation across the table
But I'm underwater
I'm making small talk about the weather
But I'm in the clouds
Brace for impact 'cause we're going down
I'm behind the curtain
Under the surface
Up in the sky and flying
While I'm pulling strings in dissociation
