Crosseyed And Painless Lyrics

    Lost my shape-trying to act casual!
    Can't stop-i might end up in the hospital
    I'm changing my shape-i feel like an accident
    They're back!-to explain their experience

    Isn't it weird/looks too obscure to me
    Wasting away/and that was their policy

    I'm ready to leave-i push the fact in front of me
    Facts lost-facts are never what they seem to be
    Nothing there!-no information left of any kind
    Lifting my head-looking for danger signs

    There was a line/there was a formula
    Sharp as a knife/facts cut a hole in us
    There was a line/there was a forula
    Sharp as a knife/facts cut a hole in us

    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
    The feeling returns/whenever we close out eyes
    Lifting my head/looking around inside

    The island of doubt-it's like the taste of medicine
    Working by hindsight-got the message from the oxygen
    Making a list-find the cost of opportunity
    Doing it right-facts are useless in emergencies

    The feeling returns/whenever we close out eyes
    Lifting my head/looking around inside.

    Facts are simple and facts are straight
    Facts are lazy and facts are late
    Facts all come with points of view
    Facts don't do what i want them to
    Facts just twist the truth around
    Facts are living turned inside out
    Facts are getting the best of them
    Facts are nothing on the face of things
    Facts don't stain the furniture
    Facts go out and slam the door
    Facts are written all over your face
    Facts continue to change their shape

    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
    I'm still waiting...i'm still waiting...
