I live in a hotel, I must keep writing If I'm to be better than everyone else Like figure skating, like asphyxiating On your own seeping fumes, you're just waiting Living in a hotel, I'm not traveling Between two points, in midair I'm levitating Above the earth, beneath the sky, with eyes like static In my three feet from bed to wall sleeps a genius Leave me here to my devices The call could come at any time They're playing love songs on the radio tonight I can't relate to that right now Note to self, no one cares, your voice is average In worried piles I typed for miles, you just stood there I will begin, I will put right this morning terror I have been kissed between the ears with human error Leave me here to my devices I need a word to change my life I've tied my ankles to the table legs with wire He can't write so much as type Leave me here to my devices I can't think with all this noise They're playing love songs on your radio tonight I don't get those songs on mine You keep ****ing up my life You keep ****ing up my life You keep ****ing up my life You keep ****ing up my life
