Socrates, Thunder,…
Words by Bryon Bowers
Asked you a question
and You stole my Soul….
Then you picked curtains
To hang in my brain
My teenage self Sneaking
Into your office locked…
and down your back stairs…
You moved away
No forwarding address
Left my brain
In distress
[Chorus]
You climbed up Into my Brain…
Your body wrapped me in Cellophane…
Office, Apartment,
And in your Car…
You moved away, but you didn’t go far…
You’re still paying rent in my Brain…
Driving me just a little Insane….
Exposed my brain
To your elegant scalpel
Checked your boxes…
I was a worm in your apple…
Lessons learned…
No heads turned…
Knowing Smiles Exchanged…
Our meetings you arranged…
Smart, clever, with a level head
Popcorn on your couch
Watching “The Living Dead”...
[Chorus]
You climbed up Into my Brain…
Your body wrapped me in Cellophane…
Office, Apartment,
And in your Car…
You moved away, but you didn’t go far…
You’re still paying rent in my Brain…
Driving me just a little Insane….
Smoke flowing from your nose on me
My finger tips on your knee…
You made fun of my van…
I said “that shit turns your lungs black”....
You said, “humans are a cosmic blink”...
Now your lost to me
In time and space
Probably got some wrinkles
on your face
Im older now
I see you differently
I see my younger self reaching…
For something I didn't have
Attempting to fill the void
Keeping everyone at a safe distance
From my fragile heart…
But I failed…
I let you in…
Now it's Time to say goodbye again…
It was fun, I had a blast…
I should’ve known it wouldn't last…
[Chorus]
You climbed up Into my Brain…
Your body wrapped me in Cellophane…
Office, Apartment,
And in your Car…
You moved away, but you didn’t go far…
You’re still paying rent in my Brain…
Driving me just a little Insane….
