lyrics

Doctor can you help me
Doctor can you help me
I'm just a little sick
At least that's what they tell me
I dream in greyscale

I am suburbia
I drive a Subaru
It might as well have suburbs
Right in the name
I'm hanging spice racks
I got a toolset
Maybe my father in law
Will show me how to use it

I dream in greyscale

I go to church
It's just for money
It's just my job
It's just like Brooklyn
They live in churches
They talk like socialites
They do it all the time
They're building websites
And I'm in bed by 10
Sometimes I sleep all night

Dreaming greyscale

There's a voice in my brain
When no one else is around
I wish you all would leave so I'd have
Someone to talk to

I want to chase the sunset
Across the time zones
And watch it over and
Over and over
Inside a newspaper taxi
Drive up to the edge
Float above the water
I can't get out of my head

I go out with my friends
I get real agitated
Why don't we play the right notes?
Why do we get so faded
I'm such a wet blanket
I'm such a small pock mark
On a beautiful world

I dream in greyscale

I miss my colors
I miss the deep blues
I miss the neons
I miss and miss and miss
