A Flatline Blur Lyrics


My friends are working on avoiding me
So when we meet I keep my mouth real busy
Talk out my nervous energy
It never works, I throw darts at the wall and get sloppyBut it's alright now
If I seem surprised
It's just a joke I'm trying out
But if it floats, I guess we keep it aroundA woman gestures lazily
Through the hoods on my eyes
I see her shaking her jewelry
It casts a perfect light on meI feel moved and that's strange
But lately, I've been acting really strangelySo it's alright now
I'm keeping distracted to blunt my reactions
And anyhow you think less
When there's less for you to think aboutA paralyzed puppet sits stiff in the window
Grinding his teeth and playing piano
All his songs bleed together in a flatline blur
Broken litany, worthless wordsCreating space while your drinks get served
I know it gets on your nerves

Try to pretend like it's not work
A little denial never hurts

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
