Petty Drone

Over-sexed, triple X, baby
Under-stimulated
Polarized, desensitized
And hyper-normalized
Stuck inside a simulation
Of your imagination
You can’t cancel, change the channel
Or change the station
Depressed, self-possessed, baby
Easily persuaded
Vandalized, re-pressurized
Forever immortalized
Stuck inside a dream, or so it seems
And all along we have been wrong
But we can’t cancel, change the channel
Or change the station
Help me find my way back out of here
Rewind and press play, or I’ll disappear
Into a ghost, only you can set me free
'Cause my mind’s out of phase with the atmosphere
Is what I’m trying to say, but no one can hear
I’m becoming a ghost of who I used to be
Overfed, under-read, jaded
Mister mis-educated
Ostracized, denationalized
Reassessed, recategorized
Searching for the truth
Just another toll wasting your own youth
But you can’t tell if it’s fact or fiction
You can’t cancel your subscription
Over-sexed, triple X, baby
Under-stimulated
Polarized, desensitized
And hyper-normalized
Stuck inside a simulation
Of your imagination
You can’t cancel, change the channel
Or change the station
Help me find my way back out of here
Rewind and press play, or I’ll disappear
Into a ghost, only you can set me free
'Cause my mind’s out of phase with the atmosphere
Is what I’m trying to say, but no one can hear
I’m becoming a ghost of who I used to be
Used to be
