I am a born again quitter
my failed ambitions of youth left me jaded and bitter
I'm a new man, come find me and I'll tell you the rest
I surf C st. every night at sunset
I loiter at the crackhead lot at the point
where the Juggalos sell drugs to high school boys
where they understand the meaning of self-employed
and no one looks twice at my painted toenails
I'm just trying to keep my head down
be, not really aloof, just hard to get ahold of
leave no trace and wait it out
in my slice of Eden
with nothing to do and 101 unread emails
I'm happy
It's all too much for me to let in
that's why I bailed on your birthday and missed your wedding
its more a sacrifice than me forgetting
my intentions are utilitarian
cause
I don't believe our dying planet needs
another white boy chasing his dreams
this is my contribution to world peace
I'm downsizing grandiose dreams
and quietly checking out
I'm just trying to keep my head down
be, not really aloof, just hard to get ahold of
leave no trace and wait it out
in my slice of Eden
with nothing to do and 101 unread emails
I'm happy
