Carbon tea's for after night
When my body says to sleep
But my ears are blocked with parasites
My back is a raft
I could float along all day
While my sea monster decays
Hoping I don't move this week
I been swimming through a patch
Of some really rancid grass
Echoes tell me it's alright
I keep bottling my thoughts
But most of them are gone
Most of them are gone
Ruminate and ruminate
Then ruminate some more
Cause all my thoughts are poor
Can't afford to die this week
My paychecks' getting slimmer
Put my brain through the ringer
So I'll sleep until my problems' solved
You wouldn't wake a flu
So just wake me when it's through
Told me I could work it out
Tried to work that day
But what if it don't work that way
It don't work that way
It don't work that way
It don't work that way
