Album:

Flavors of Entaglament, DELUXE EDITION

It’s been 10 years of investment
 It’s been one foot in and one out
 It’s been 4 days of full of shit
 and I feel snuffed out


It’s been 33 years of restraining
 Of trying to control this tumult
 How I did invest in such fantasy
 But my nervous system has worn out


I feel done, I feel raked over coals
 and all that remains is the case
 That it’s a bitch to grow up


I’ve repeated this dance ad-nauseum
 There’s still something to learn that I’ve not
 I’m told to see this as divine perfection
 But my bones don’t feel this perfection


I feel done, I feel raked over coals
 and all that remains is the case
 That it’s a bitch to grow up


I’ve spent life hovering above bottom
 Thinking I can’t survive what’s below
 But I’ve known through the kicking and screaming
 That there was no other direction to go


I feel done, I feel raked over coals
 and all that remains is the case
 That it’s a bitch to grow up
