Bags of Water

every single person you've ever feared
who made you want hide away and disappear
who laughed at your misfortune and called you weird
their mostly just bags of water
the kid who broke your glasses in the second grade
who took your lunch money in the playround shade
who made you feel helpless and so afraid
is mostly just a bag of water
all the people on the street are just skin apon the meat
with a scaffolding of bone and sinew
it's a beautiful machine but it's lipids and protiens
and carbohydrates locked within you
so when you want to talk to the girl down the block
and your scared of feeling like a stalker
just remember that you both
underneath your fancy clothes
are only just bags of water
the girl who you took to the senior prom
who went to freshen up
but then she took too long
the guy you found her kissing in the parking lot
are mostly just bags of water
the driver in the semi in the passing lane
who's blocking up the traffic all the way to Spain
the cop who pulls you over when you drive like a saint
their mostly just bags of water
the people on the street are just skin apon the meat
with a scaffolding of bone and sinew
it's a beautiful machine but it's lipids and protiens
and carbohydrates locked within you
so when you want to talk to the girl down the block
and your scared of feeling like a stalker
just remember that you both
underneath your fancy clothes
are only just bags of water
before you start to think your smart
and different from the rest
like there's something deep
and so unique
that's hiding in your flesh
just remember you are
a bag of water too
all the people on the street are just skin apon the meat
with a scaffolding of bone and sinew
it's a beautiful machine but it's lipids and protiens
and carbohydrates locked within you
so when you want to talk to the girl down the block
and your scared of feeling like a stalker
just remember that you both
underneath your fancy clothes
are only just bags of water
you are only just a bag of water
