lyrics

Lately I’ve been thinking of myself in a far-away hazy kind of parody of a stick of gum.
Up and down between the teeth of everyone-cycling off and on silently and sweet.
The softeners and plastics blowing me away!

Carolyn staring at the ocean
Quietly reveling in boredom
Remembering

Maybe I could think of you like that too.
Have you ever seen a body float away or trapped and swallowed completely whole?

Carolyn staring at the ocean
Quietly reveling in boredom
Why does the sky turn blue
Carolyn staring at the ceiling
Patiently waiting for the meaning
Falling asleep
