  • It's really too bad that anyone even invented
    The concept of perfection
    And don't be mistaken
    It's all that it ever was
    Just a concept, an idea
    A story to scare the children
    Of a megalomaniacal pair
    Of some smartasses somewhere out there
    Spiraling through history books
    Hiding in the subtext in between the lines
    Of the single most boring page ever inflicted
    On the temp worker proofreading textbooks
    To pay off the wasted English degree
    They earned but never will need
    It's really too bad when I opt into paralysis
    To protect me from a malice
    That I'm not sure even exists
    Oh, but what if it did?
    Like an ancient evil that showed up at your party
    And it's really bumming everyone out
    Sucking us into an endless void
    Spiraling through alternate space
    Hiding in the subfloors and between the walls
    Of the single most boring place that ever existed
    And that's where we'll live
    Kept alive by enzymes for a thousand years
    And while I'm glad you're here
    I still kinda wish I didn't have to be
    It's really too bad when things start looking good
    For the first time in a while
    But I can't see it
    Because I live with fear
    Fear is my roommate
    He's an asshole
    And he stands in front of the window all day
    To block my view
    Or am I just copping out?
    Spiraling through history books
    Hiding in the subtext in between the lines
    Of the single most boring page that ever existed
    And that's where we'll live
    Kept alive on bookshelves for a thousand years
    And while I'm glad you're here
    I still kinda wish I didn't have to be
