lyrics

another receipt received
coffee and a donut
chocolate glazed, two percent milk
i keep it with me incase i lose it
doing something stupid

orange tables, yellow walls
brown chairs and nearby malls
i'm surrounded by warm colors
i'd see in my sleep

attempts to document my illness
they all fall through
it never leaves
and i've grown tired of how it grew

but it just doesn't get to me
