I'm trying not to have a thought
But not having much luck
I can't shake 'em, they keep catching up
They seem to me suspiciously peripheral
I'm a sucker for a reliable surprise
Must be why I'm always changing my mind
The first scent of blood and out come the wolves
I'm talking over (I'm talking over) myself again
Attack regrets with eagle's talons
Impress your new friends with your hidden talents
There is no "I" in Algernon
And I'm just trying not to have a goddam thought
Goddamnit
Yeah, but I'm talking over myself again
I'm talking over
(I'm talking over) yeah, I'm talking over (myself again) myself again
(I'm talking over)
I know I'm lost
And I know it's always in the last place, oh
ย
I'm talking over myself again
I'm talking over
I'm trying not to get caught
In the backwash of an artificial world
Constructed by bloodsucking motherfuckers
In an anti-social coliseum, pretensions and expectations
Imposed to manifest a status quo
I don't need a kaleidoscope to see
The patterns of toxicity
We are radiators hissing in unison
Oh-oh, fever pitch is our new national anthem
