afterschool
i been obsessed with mundane things
the ritual spending that society brings
i been consumed by confusion within
sanctified sin from howl to growl to grin
i been betrayed by a sense of what is right
been mistaking dark days for bright nights
sometimes i feel i'm more than a fool
losing my wits everyday as a rule
(afterschool) welcome to my afterschool special
(afterschool) see me get ground in the mortar and pestle
(afterschool) all I ever wanted was to cuddle and nestle
(afterschool) and be the sexy saint of your afterschool special
i been untied by the wide and empty sky
cause when it opened i could see behind its eyes
i been unnerved by the edge of the known world
it's like an oyster giving up its pearl
i been betrayed by a sense of what is good
i should get rid of the word should
sometimes i think that these days never end
just as they're stopping they start up again
