My Lazy Mind Songtext
von The Dream Syndicate

I′ve seen better days, refused to let it change my ways
Quantified and verified, based on charts, delays and lies
A linear expanse of time with dots and stars and broken lines
Forgery and fakes poised to minimize mistakes

A pair of jacks, a paradigm
Blame it on my lazy mind


Tasted fear from the tap, spilled a little in my lap
Stained, remained, the losses gained, another feather in my cap
It's easier to smile, compile, and keep the peace for a little while
It′s not that I can't stand the pain, it just gets hard to ascertain

Underwhelmed and undermined
Blame it on my lazy mind

I tried to connect the dots, found myself tied up in knots
A contortionist, an afterthought, one by one they lost the plot
Something came to give me pause, I pushed it away because
It reminded me of something that never was

A curtain call from Frankenstein
Blame it on my lazy mind
