Relentless Noise

I wrote about you a long time ago
Have you found any old pictures of me?
Somewhere in a sketchbook
Or in a 16-track in Jersey?
And it’s a familiar thing I’m feeling
When the porch lights solo out
Like all my friends in high school
Listening to Why Bother way too loud, and still
I thought about you a long time ago
Had a feeling you were thinking of me
Things I thought I knew before
Things I thought would always haunt me
And it’s a familiar thing I’m feeling
When I hold you long enough
The fear I’ll wake to empty space
I can’t take by myself
But where were you?
I built this big house just for me
I fought and won the war
On fear of being lonely
I was easily scared off
And now I just don’t promise much
But I wanna fill the room
With a relentless noise
Where were you?
I built this big house just for me
I fought and won the war
On fear of being lonely
I was easily scared off
And now I just don’t promise much
But I wanna fill the room
With a relentless noise
It makes me sick
I do it every time
It makes me sick
I do it every time
It makes me sick
I do it every time
It makes me sick
It makes me…
