My mind is a box.

Lately I've felt like this song explains my life so I'm just gonna post the words since I basically suck at writing...

my attention is cashed so don't 
talk to me anymore be the 
subject terrifying or 
important or pure 
my cigarettes are spent so don't 
expect productivity be the 
matter just or crucial or 
personal or reactive 
my mind is a box and you put things in and you 
take things out and it's empty 
my mind is a box and you gut it then and you 
flatten it and you leave me blank and the 
world is big my body's small my 
body's short the world is tall 

so fill me up with chemicals or 
other people's words 
i shout it from this pretty hole in 
modes and fifths and thirds 
my mind is a box 
my mind is a lie 
my mind 

my mind is a line running down my spine 
like a vine of green and psychedelic 
iridescent rainbows 
my body is built like a function of mechanics 
like a robot when he gives himself his 
own petty instructions 
my mind is a box and you put things in and you 
take things out and it's empty 
my mind is a box and you gut it then and you 
flatten it and you leave me blank and the 
world is big my body's small my 
body's short the world is tall 

so fill me up with chemicals or 
other people's words 
i shout it from this pretty hole in 
modes and fifths and thirds 
i steep up an infusion there and 
pour it on these keys 
i'm influenced so easily so 
influence me please 
just 
fill me up with chemicals or 
other people's words 
i shout it from this pretty hole in 
modes and fifths and thirds 
i steep up an infusion there and 
pour it on these keys 
i'm influenced so easily so 
influence me please 
i'm influenced so easily so 
influence me please
