lyrics

i'm just a quiet american doing the worst that i can to be the person i am - eat verses out of hands and spit them back out again - cheap stuff surrounds me, so i say goodbye to all of it - overextend my elbow as i reach past the breaking point - faking smoking joints to impress my neighbors - then i ask myself, "should i play it straight or act my nervous self?" - well i choose neither

don't go calling my name

self-centered and pitted against my former enemy which is myself with more splinters in my body - make my lips sound like a horse snorting - sorting my priorities, but not really - is the light still on or is that dawn - i've had my eyes closed for way too long - i talk about my bones like i have constant contact with them - well, i do move and my tongue touches them when i express my moods - to be left in the forest or woods like a tourist with no shoes like a feral child i saw on the news

dont' go calling my name
