[Chorus]

I would swallow my pride

I would choke on the rhines

But the lack thereof would leave me empty inside

I would swallow my doubt

turn it inside out find nothing but faith in nothing

Want to put my tender heart in a blender

Watch it spin round to a beautiful oblivion

Rendezvous then I'm through with you



I burn burn like a wicker cabinet

chalk white and oh so frail

I see out time has gotten stale



The tick tock of the clock is painful

All sane and logical

I want to tear it off the wall



I hear words and clips

and phrases I think sick like ginger ale

My stomach turns and I exhale



[Chorus]



So Cal is where my mind states

but it's not my state of mind

I'm not as ugly sad as you

Or am I origami

folded up and just pretend

demented as the motives in your head



[Chorus]



I alone am the one you don't know you

need me take heed feed your ego

Make me blind when your eyes close sink when you get close tie me to the bedpost

I alone am the one you don't know you

need me take heed feed your ego

Make me blind when your eyes close sink when you get close tie me to the bedpost



[Chorus]
