Will Wood and the Tapeworms - 2012

"here's a song"

("fuck")

I was an existential criminal, so innocently cynical
Ignorant as fuck, but a proud individual
Originally meant to live a god-damned miracle
Might’ve been metaphysical, but i think it was medical

Testing my hypothesis, never finding a theory

Emulating animals and mental aboriginals
A miserable fuck, but a loud tao mystical
An enemy of ritual traditionally integral to
Biblical originals, but literally pitiful

Too impatient for outpatient, paging dr. leary
Did you lose yourself? it’s always in the last place that you’d check

I might find myself by retracing my steps

I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I don’t remember 2012. i don’t remember
Wow, the whole year’s a blur

I think i bought into the comedy and brought a lot of oddity
An odyssey i thought to be consider a commodity
And not until anomaly abolished my monotony
Did i applaud autonomy and modify a lot of me?

I’ll escape this reality, be the next houdini

So i glory be satori but it’s hallucinatory
And it’s sure to be a story i can tell in purgatory
I said, once i’ve lost it can there be a
Mahaprajnaparamita?

Did you lose yourself? it’s always in the last place that you’d check

I might find myself (by retracing my steps)
By retracing my steps

I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I heard the world would turn to hell
Compared to that, i’m doing well

I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I don’t remember how i forgot myself
I don’t remember, i don’t remember 2012
I don’t remember 2012, i don’t remember 2012
