lyrics

The contents of my stomach
Lay in the sink downstairs
Mixed in with blood and vomit
That caught me unawares

To feel like I was someone
A naive ambition
I should remember who I am
And stick to my position
But I guess that's what I get
For having ideas above my station
A hopeless disappointment
And a premature cremation

With eyes of burst blood vessels
And teeth well past decayed
My youthfulness drains from me
In a bed, as yet, unmade
I try to find some solace
In a superior pretense
Vast knowledge of art and music
Severe lack of common sense

To feel like I was someone
A naive ambition
I should remember who I am
And stick to my position
But I guess that's what I get
For having ideas above my station
A hopeless disappointment
And a premature cremation

With dreams and my actions
Make me contradict myself
An artistic disposition
A propensity to wealth
I'm pregnant with ambition
But my laziness abounds
And as fragile as a bubble
My potential still surrounds
My potential still surrounds
