"Virus" lyrics
"Virus"
I was so deeply pleased to pause this life
I think I jinxed the world and caused this strife
Yes, I longed so long for fewer nouns
I longed so well, the world shut down
And now the kettle is calling the pot black
I call you virus but you don't call me back
So I just keep listening to my own voice
In the echo chamber of my choice
Touché, I say, and mazeltov
To the kind of ride you can't get off
Can't, that is, until you must
You win, I give in
In less I trust
And now the kettle is calling the pot black
Yes, I call you virus but you don't call me back
So, I just keep listening to my own voice
In the echo chamber of my choice
I was so deeply pleased to pause this life

Lisa Loeb - "Jake" I'm going as far as I can go, away from here,
Away from you, Jake, and the hole you've sunk me into.
I wish that I could belong here, with you, and just be,
But that's not all that I'm about.

Dessa - "I'm Going Down" We sit in the car outside your house
And I can feel the heat coming down
I go to put my arms around you
Give me a look like I'm way out of bounds
Yeah, let out one of your bored sighs and
Lately when...
Alanis Morissette - "Mary Jane" What's the matter Mary Jane?
You had a hard day
As you place the "Don't disturb" sign on the door
You lost your place in line again, what a pity
You never seem to wanna dance anymore
It's a long way...
