"I Tried To Draw A Straight Line (Relaxed Version)"

I tried to draw a straight line
With a pencil in 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, heres a lesson
Well I've got something to ask you
How I can I value these faces
When a face is asking questions

I've never seen you smile
See, I've been pretty 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?
Was I making you feel uncool?
Was it something that I said?
Why ya looking at me like that
I 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 wait off of my chest
It's not my fault, it just happened
I can flip around my eyelids
Scare the shit out of my kids
Made of a trillion little Adams

I haven't even had them
Do I deserve to have an imprint
On child, on an infant
Fuck I can't even imagine
I've limped along for miles
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?
Ok, now I'm in the airplane
How the hell are we still texting?

I been staring at heat lightning
Out the window of an aeroplane
Man I used to wanna be something
I don't care if its a video game
All I want is unlimited time
I've been living all over the place
In a house on a couch that isn't mine
I've been living in a liminal space
