"I Tried To Draw A Straight Line" lyrics

Yeah, I tried to draw a straight line
In a pencil with a vacuum, sucked a quarter from a mattress
There's a border and it's clearly defined
But I'm a dumbass in a classroom and I keep getting distracted
Can you take me at face value?
Mr. Head is up in space
I'm your teacher, here's a lesson
Well I've got something to ask you
How I can I value these faces
When a face is asking questions?

No, I've never seen you smile
You see, I've been kinda angry
Since the Kings lost to the Lakers
In the Western Conference Finals
Ain't it funny when you find out
Everything is fake, everything is fake, everything is fake

Why ya looking at me like that?
Are you wishin' that I was dead?
Am I making you feel uncool?
Was it something that I said?
Why ya looking at me like that?
Only ask because I care
Are we layin' this thing to rest?
Can we can we finally clear the air?

I think I feel enlightened
I feel this weight off of my chest, it's not my fault, it just happened
I can flip around my eyelids
And scare the shit out of my kids, made of a trillion little atoms
Oh, I haven't even had them
Do I deserve to have an imprint
On a child, on an infant
Fuck, I can't even imagine
Feel I've limped along for miles
And now life's a game of inches

Oh, I wish that I could care more
I haven't eaten breakfast
They put cinnamon on breadsticks
Can you tell I'm at the airport?
Okay, now I'm on the airplane
How the hell are we still texting? (I been)

I been staring at heat lightning
Out the window of an aeroplane
Man, I used to wanna be something
No, I don't care if its a video game
All I want is unlimited time
I've been living all over the place
On a couch in a house that isn't mine
I've been living in a liminal space

Why ya looking at me like that?
Are you wishin' that I was dead?
Am I making you feel uncool?
Was it something that I said?
Why ya looking at me like that?
Only ask because I care
Are we layin' this thing to rest?
Can we can we finally clear the air?

I tried to draw a straight line
