The instrument tracks were all recorded before I even attempted to sing this song, which was not a good idea as I cannot sing very well in the key of E major. Thus, this song does not exactly feature a good vocal part.

Meathead syndrome,
No goals, no control.
The light, the time
It’s in my mind,
Oh fine,
Won’t be polite

No goals, no control,
Meathead syndrome,
No cure,
Not attuned to be here

I’m your janitor today,
I do it for the pay and
Soak in the shadow
The pistol, a blade in trade
I use my hands to feel sane
It crawls out my heart, to my arm,
Up the wrist,
So close to your throat
Crawling
Crawling
No future in your flight…

There’s a pound or two of flesh in my chest yet.
