THE TREATMENT

I didn’t know this was a treatment.
I stepped aboard for entertainment.
This fuel is fine, so magically aligned.

I kept my head, my head about me;
a credit check of what I should be.
I’ve made enough for both of us combined.

Pity the mind, the mind that wanders.
I can’t imagine any longer
a single life so singularly refined.

I care enough to watch and listen,
carry the only gift I’ve given,
make minor changes just to keep in line.

Who says abort imagination?
Intel Inside Entire Nation
What’s not ahead is usually behind.

Pity the mind, the mind that wanders.
I can’t imagine any longer
a single life so singularly refined.

So the girl and the guy
they’re like…um… Overcast –
you know, they don’t even have a clue.
And when the neighbor gets involved,
it’s like this triangle…
(And explosions, lots of explosions)…
So that when everyone wakes up
it’s like it was a dream:
And now they can see how hurt they’ve been –
like all those broken promises –
but nobody meant to do it.
And then…he walks into the sunset…
yea…the sunset…that’s good.
