Conversation Lyrics

Conversation lyrics

I think it's time we had a little conversation

Me and you

I'm
willing to admit it's overdue

See I'm feeling like life's animation

And these two-dimensional story-boards are wearing thin

So let me have
your exclusive undivided attention

Grab a blank notebook and a fresh
pen

Where do I begin if I don't know the origin?

How do I explain
why I can't sleep for weeks without medicine?

You wanna hear the most
recent aggravation?

Every time I touch the mic I get a standing
ovation

But it's probably 'cause there's no seats in here

So let me
see you on your feet in here

You got a man speaking here

But all
they wanna do is cry into their beers

But that's trivial, typical,
predictable behavior

I can't blame ya

I'd probably do the same
without my savior

I come home at night and write scripture

But
somewhere back there I lost the big picture

You paying attention, man?

This fifty bucks an hour ain't cheap

And I didn't come here to speak to
dead meat

I guess that's why the little tape recorder's running

So
you can play me back later, analyze my behavior

Give it to your neighbors
and other strangers

Then y'all can laugh at my expenses, no pun
intended

And make new conversation about the new patient you're working
with



Step one is to admit you've got a problem

Step two is
to help your fucking self

Step three is theoretical

Some sort of
positive progression toward the unattainable



I think it's time we
had a little conversation

Me and you

I've seen what you can do

Rearranging concrete mind states

Complicated mental cases putting on a
happy face

Without booze or freebase

I got a good friend with a
strong faith

He says if I can
