Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I spent the winter on the verge of total breakdown
While living in Norway
I felt the darkness of the black metal bands
But being such a faun of a man
I didn't burn down any old churches
Just slept way too much, just slept
[Verse 2]
My mind rejects the frequency
It's static craziness to me
Is it a solar fever?
The TV man's too loud
Our plane is sleeping on a cloud
You turn the dial, I'll try and smile
We've eaten plastic weather
This family sticks together
We will escape from the South to the Westside
My mind rejects the frequency
It's just verbosity to me
Is it all in my head?
[Verse 3]
I spent the winter with my nose buried in a book
While trying to restructure my character
'Cause it had become vile to its creator
And through many dreadful nights
I lay praying to a saint that nobody has heard of
And waiting for some high times to come again
[Verse 4]
My mind rejects the frequency
It's static craziness to me
Is it a solar fever?
The TV man's too loud
Our plane is sleeping on a cloud
You turn the dial, I'll try and smile
We've eaten plastic weather
This family sticks together
We will escape from the South to the Westside
My mind rejects the frequency
It's just verbosity to me
Is it all in my head?
[Verse 5]
Dirty old shadows, stay away, don't play your games with me
I am older now, I see the way you operate
If you don't hurt me then you die
[Verse 6]
My mind rejects the frequency
It's static craziness to me
Is it a solar fever?
The TV man's too loud
Our plane is sleeping on a cloud
You turn the dial, I'll try to smile
We've eaten plastic weather
This family sticks together
We will escape from the South to the Westside
My mind rejects the frequency
It's just verbosity to me
Is it just in my head?
