Synonymous with no one else I stand here staring at myself Wishing that this mirror would turn into you I played your message over More times than I have this song Poking at this light fixture That's slowly dimming out I thought I'd have something to say But it seems my voice has gone astray Since yesterday Synonymous with no one else I stand here staring at myself Wishing that this mirror would turn into you I woke up reaching for your hair beside me Then I realized the dog had stole my pillow I thought it'd matter to me less But seeming as I'm such a mess Since yesterday Since yesterday I've lost my hair I've lost my sig

Hi my name is Trash I'm just a paper bag That someone crumpled up And kicked into the sewer Floating down the streams below Made of what you already know People tried to save me But I wouldn't take their hands I know all too well what they think of me And it is not that great But if they took the time To look at me inside They'd find the parts they try to hide That someone crumpled up and kicked aside Hi, my name is Ant And I am just a bug Admiring your beauty from your wall Somehow my size frightens you And lightning strikes me like a shoe A martyr for the things That I am unable to change about myself I know all too wel

I'm back here waiting for that call you'll never make And I can't help but dwell on all of my mistakes I hid your picture 'cause I could not throw it away Take off that makeup and put on this plastic face Forgive my being blunt But you'd be much less misleading that way We passed down on Bellaire pretending we had never met So I lost my appetite and felt like the living dead If I'm incapable of being on your mind Then I'll try to find comfort in all your wasted time Forgive my cynicism But you seem much too busy anyway

When I was 19 I listened to indie rock and hated my parents I felt just like a prisoner of my fate I had too many girlfriends and I felt like I needed more I swore that I had lost my mind and I OD'd on caffeine I never was alright It felt like just last night I'd like to say that I've changed so much since then But I really can't say... When I was 19 I claimed that I should be 28 In retrospect, well I just laugh 'cause I'll never reach that age When I was 19 I thought that I was a superstar I played small shows in smaller clubs and I felt like I'd hit the big time But I never was alright And it felt like just last night I'd like

Tonight I am void of possibilities So I think I'll stare up at the ceiling Until it starts to spin And the carpets exploding The couches are imploding And the hallway doors all open wide Like black gaping mouths trying to coax me in Would you let me stay here for awhile? If I crawled into a corner and shrunk to a minute size 'Cause that's how I feel anyway I don't mean to exaggerate But lately I just feel like I'm getting in everyone else's way So If I do, just throw me away

Make your monster look like an angel Mix it in your drink and feel like a martyr Ink blots sun spots selling smoke Blow it out your eyes and see your ghost Salad bars and fake fur coats A cannibal told me I taste like soap Mister Fister in my tub Potty training cats with a baseball glove Mommy's little H-Bomb dressed like a cigarette Running off into the sunset We're not holding back we won't hold back We're not holding back we won't hold back Magic Hobgoblin Silly String Gun...

Join me on the stair tonight So we can sleep diagonally I'll play with yours if you play with mine Our hair I mean, don't think me obscene I'm only trying coup d'etats to save myself the au revoirs Like poison from the heartbreak germ Like taxidermist pachyderms Ooh... Every life time I have spent Away, astray, it's you for whom I stay Afloat my head in space Come try your best to pull me down I'll show you how things look from here I'm always sleeping in the trash Whenever you don't have my back 'Cause I misplace it all the time And never dig it up in time No I never dig it up in time for you

There was a story I wrote it about you I was an android And you were a boy And the pages were empty Except for the spots where My tears made the page wet And I could not write on them I've stolen your eyes And placed them in the sky One replaced the Sun While the other the Moon Then there was a fire It swallowed my voice And I couldn't call out To see where it took you But I know that this wasn't for the first time Wasn't for the last time And our voices only carry so far As we sing doo-doo-doo Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo And when I think that I'm too small For this giant world it's a monster's world

Summer time reminds me of this song Because I wrote it about the summer Even though it's only spring It's the time of year I never sleep And put off my priorities And devote every day to having fun It reminds me of that Dairy Queen With all those old arcade machines Like Donkey Kong and Galaga I don't know where they ended up I never thought of going far Until I learned to play guitar And then we'd run around the mall Singing to no one at all And we'd call that church across the street And get their answering machine And try not to laugh while we'd sing About shitting in the kitchen sink It's like how we fo

I've got a headache and it really sucks It makes me wish I didn't have a head at all Robots and cigarettes are pretty cool So are shitty movies and acting a fool Hands hands raise your hands Wrap your hands around the Sun And bring it down, bring it down Down down down to me Share it and we'll melt our hands together now I forgot to write this part down So I'll just keep on going like- One thing that I don't like is acting sane I'd rather run around the streets like a train Hands hands raise your hands Wrap your hands around the Sun And bring it down, bring it down Down down down to me Share it and we'll melt
