I Typed For Miles

I Typed For Miles

Jets To Brazil
(album: Orange Rhyming Dictionary)

I live in a hotel
must keep writing
if I´m to be better than everyone else
like figure skating
like asphyxiating
on your own seeping fumes
you´re just waiting
living in a hotel
but I´m not traveling
between two points, in mid air,
I´m levitating
above the earth
beneath the sky
eyes like static
in my three feet
from bed to wall
there sleeps a genius
leave me here to my devices
the call could come at any time
they´re playing love songs on the radio tonight
I can´t relate to that right now
note to self : no one cares. your voice is average
in worried piles I typed for miles and you just stood there
I will begin
I will put right
this morning terror
I have been kissed
between the ears
by human error
leave me here to my devices
I need a word to change my life
I´ve tied my ankles to the table legs with wire
he can´t write so much as type
leave me here to my devices
I can´t think with all this noise
they´re playing love songs on your radio tonight
I don´t get those songs on mine
you keep fucking up my life
