about
I hated this song for years after I wrote it. Somehow it turned around on me after this recording.
lyrics
Loneliest is still the best, I dwell on my affections,
I seek only perfection, I seek only perfection,
Loneliest is still the best, I dwell on your afflictions,
I seek only addiction, I won't become your addiction,
But you've got a nice face and I'd wondered where you've been,
You've got a nice place, I'd like to see it again.
Some days of rest, I'll make the best, I sound like good intentions,
I've got only bad intentions, I've got only bad intentions,
Winter dress, we look the best, we're college and invention,
It's creative intervention, it's a fucked up world we live in,
But you've got a nice face and I don't care about redemption,
I'm boldly misplaced, I am bold, at the doors I'll be let in
Loveliest, this is not a test, it's life and it's conviction,
I'm not the chicken, I'm the drunk man, and I'm knocking over trashcans,
With my fists locked, my head rocked, I am high as hell,
And I'm spinning out,
Nothing falls at my feet so I'll stop standing in the rain,
Like some idiot, waiting for water to turn into wine,
And where the hell have I been?
