lyrics

Attractive people smiling and laughing
In a perfect suburban home
A deep voiced, funny voice over
And me, alone and stoned

This manipulated grin
I hasten to wipe off my face
An insurance advertisement
Has invaded my mental space


Entangled in each other's airs
Wrapped in hair
Picking up on subtle signs
We can't describe


more often have I seen a cat reason than to laugh or weep
So soften up the edges break outta the grid and fall back asleep
An instant translation of a glint of light bounced off your eye
A logical emotion in the flickered lids and mouth pulled to the side
Subtle evocations mirrored on your subconscious face
Empathic obligations so neglected in a digital space

Connected circuit of touch
Eye contact infractions
Inflected reactions


Place a price on emotions
Monetize your laughs
A few bucks for a chuckle
A knee-slapper earns wads of cash

Place your sadness in a spreadsheet
Categorize all your bad days
Input functions for all your stressors
Crunch the the numbers of your malaise


Anger compartmentalized
Left to die
But consume its withered shell
Show and tell
