Lyrics

As I understand, I guess I paced around the porch Flop sweating, 'round 2am. 'Cause I had the strangest dream Last night. You were in it. Your roommates were in it A dark driveway. The blue 1994 Civic That I owned three cars ago I looked around, and no, I didn't recognize The number crudely nailed into the vinyl siding Straight, but the trunks on all the trees were warped Familiar sights the likes I'd never seen before But I know that's how I get once it starts snowing Like my whole universe's set to blow but I don't know it This time of year I'm vibrating This time of year I'm a mile up circling the ring The middleweight champeen's still dancin' 'Cause he don't care, no, he don't care about that Unphased, he's pickin' a fang up off the floormat Finally watching the David Fincher Alien Christmas Eve, around 2am And my neck's kicked back seventeen (maybe sixteen) times From the sleep I left back in last week And the back of the sofa digs deep into the cavity Behind the cavities that I gotta get seen A.S.A.P And it startles me Go down then up in time to see bandana man Get spit on by a xenomorph and chopped by a fan Then turn into a tornado of burger meat Clocked it and I fell back asleep The "Nothing much, you?" outlining your life now Running your levels low Adjust the posture outlining your spine now. Keep going 'Cause I know, we all know That's how it gets once it starts snowing Like the whole universe's got a timer set below it Can't normally bring up these things But that's just the type of thing you'll find it's worth it to Bring up as the eye swells shut. No icing it back And though nobody seems to talk about that Your corner's got your back Back up and take it, Jack Right as the sun crests over a frozen pond Central Florida shivers their morning along A talking head, recognized, says, "Happens sometimes." Don't feel the pull to ask them to explain that 'Cause you don't care
