I saw a black dog in my dreams
Woke up on the kitchen table
Reality's a nightmare
It's all so unstable
You asked how did you sleep
I said I just closed my eyes and it happened
Now Jack Johnson's singing about pancakes
And I'm wishing we had a dog
I wish I had more money
And a better voice
And a house, not an apartment
So I could make more noise I call music and I
Want to be skinny
And I don't shower enough
Bathe me in flowers
And compliments and other bath stuff
Driving to Dayton
A dog in the back
Listening to your rants
And your old CDs of Jack
And lying to myself
That I ever even felt
Anything, anything, anythinggggggg
So just say something existential
So I can zone out
Be a ghost above my body
Floating around
I don't know myself
But I know what's right
Some part of me
Is doing alright
Trying to figure out my life
You said my 2010 Prius is junk
I kicked you out of my car
I said walk home in the heat
Get your steps in
You said something like it's too far
But I couldn't hear
My windows were rolled up
And I was busy blasting the AC
I felt no remorse
Until the apartment felt empty
You took the dog
I miss him more than you sometimes
I need God
Run a bath and my mouth
And make another sad song
I can sing to myself
When I have time on my hands
Which is all the time now
Since we split up the band
Driving to Dayton
A dog in the back
Listening to your rants
And our old CDs of Jack
And lying to myself
That I ever even felt
Anything, anything, ANYTHINGGG
Then just say something existential
So I can zone out
Be a ghost above my body
Floating around
I don't know myself
But I know what's right
Some part of me
Is doing alright
Trying to figure out my life
