Donnie Darko

I saw you in the yellow pages

I just looked at it to pass the time

In my self-alienating phases

I play a rough game, to win, to win

Of being things that I can’t be

And honestly some people are so committed to honesty

But, I don’t know if these can face that

‘Cause I’ve wanted to take back what I’ve said before

But I couldn’t find my receipt

I’ve got bed bug bites

Up my spine and my left hand side

Cool them down in the freezer aisle

Oh, so sweet ‘til the night comes by Now

I’m lying flat on the bathroom tiles

Hear the buzz of the hornet fly

Trapped inside of my orchid mind

I’m going batshit crazy, it’s not real life

I can’t be dialing the 999

Peel my skin like a clementine

Just reminds me of auld lang syne

I’ve got to focus right on the bright blue light

And hold on tight, hold on tight

Donnie Darko’s at my windscreen

Screaming, “Stop the car, stop the car please”

But I can’t

But I can’t

‘Cause the beatings just get harder and we’ll never grow them out

‘Cause the hand that does the dealings

Is the one that feeds your mouth and the beatings just get harder

And we’ll never grow them out

‘Cause the hand that does the dealings is the one that feeds your

Mouth and I won’t, and I won’t

I saw you in the yellow pages

I just looked at it to pass the time

In my self-alienating phases

I play a rough game, to win, to win

Of being things that I can’t be

And honestly some people are so committed to honesty

But I don’t know if these can face that

‘Cause I’ve wanted to take back what I’ve said before

But I couldn’t find my receipt

I saw you in the yellow pages

I just looked at it to pass the time

‘Cause I’ve wanted to take back what I’ve said before

But I can’t, and I can’t

And I know, and I know
