Track 10 from Section One

lyrics

I hate the whole planet equally, no jokes,
Any day with no tokes, is too tense, cause I ain’t off the deep end, but I’m so close,
It prolly wouldn’t take much, for someone to get taped up,
And stomped in the grapes, while I piss in their grape nuts,
Cause everything I’m seeing and I’m hearing and I taste, touch,
Smells just a little fishy to me, like a lake does,
Maybe I should quit the game and go to work for pay stubs,
....nah, fuck it, I’ll just stay buzzed,
Cause anytime I’m sober, I feel colder and it seems that,
I only ever see black, wherever I’m looking,
Got a dark world view and a brain on drugs,
So not too many people ask what I got cooking,
Cause they’d prolly rather not know,
I’m the type of guy to lure Alice down a pot-hole and sell her for a pot grow,
Why am I so hostile? Was raised with the Gospel,
But probably wouldn’t reach for the cross over a crossbow.

Been bright, but I can’t brighten up,
So I’m always lighting up, trying to lighten up, uh,
Been bright, but a darkness consumes me,
Hate what I once was; fear what I’ll soon be (X2)

Uh, everything is darkness,
Everywhere I look now,
So I just stay so high up,
I don’t even ever gotta look down,
I won’t fall; I ain’t scared of this place,
This is where I belong, this is where I belong.

Uh, but I never thought I’d get here,
Up so high, no birds, no jets here,
I won’t fall, but - I’m not scared to,
I know it’s disappointing, guys, sorry maybe next year,
Uh, I’m alone and I’m s’posed to be,
So anti-social even I haven’t spoke to me,
In close to three years and I know it seems funny,
But it’s bout to be a problem, cause I owe myself money,
I can’t even be at peace alone; should I come down?
Should I be in society? Have I unwound?
I need to lighten up, til then, I’m lighting up,
And probably after, who’m I kidding y’all? I like to puff,
Fuck it, I love to puff, probably don’t say love enough,
But I don’t even feel it, til my dosage has been doubled up,
Darkness is what’s in me, little more than hatred,
So as a public service, I’ma stay here, where you’re safest,
I’ma keep my distance, suggest you do the same,
So if we should ever cross paths, you know who to blame,
I ain’t even gonna look down, so if you climb up,
Just to meet the unwound, dead is how you’ll wind up.

Been bright, but I can’t brighten up,
So I’m always lighting up, trying to lighten up, uh,
Been bright, but a darkness consumes me,
Hate what I once was; fear what I’ll soon be (X2)

Uh, everything is darkness,
Everywhere I look now,
So I just stay so high up,
I don’t even ever gotta look down,
I won’t fall; I ain’t scared of this place,
This is where I belong, this is where I belong.
