Too Much Time Alone

If you come to find me Look no further than you must For I will be burning effigies A conspiracy is afoot Some might say I spend too much time alone Too much time in the attic of my brain I have fake conversations with myself Some might say I spend too much time alone I think they don’t understand me well enough to know So call me a mad man. The axe is buried deep and falls again and again Wood chips fly as I hew the tree of death I am working on commission That’s right the agents are paying me A coup d’état To overthrow loneliness I burn effigies of myself Some might say I spend too much time alone Ask me if I care. Ask me if I can find my way home. Ask me if the sewage is raw in my veins. Ask me if I can crack the code of loneliness. I dare you to ask me. Some might say I spend too much time alone. I can never have enough time alone. It spares me the spirit of life with society. I burn effigies. Let the flags and cannonballs fly. A war upon my soul will not stop me. I'll ride a pack of dogs into the teeth of the storm And rain down pain upon your shores A coup d’état A coup d’état Will you finally come and spare me? I doubt it. I am not an anomaly I am free to ramble in loneliness It burns my flesh, flesh that is hard as gasoline Underneath the muscle is sinuous and built for pain Come save me if you must I am not an anomaly I just spend too much time alone…
