Henry David, motivation expert
Wakes up early, spends his morning planning how to spend his mornings now
Without the city and the crowd
Takes his laundry to his mom's apartment
Dreams of living simply and sucking all the marrow out of life
Oh boy, oh baby, show me how
I used to open up my mind to let the information drive me crazy
Something on the internet would get me out of bed
But now I'm leaving you behind
I'm dropping out, I'm tuning in
Amazing transcendental meditations help me get ahead
Come join the party like it's 2021
We'll be burning through nostalgia like it's never running out
Oh boy, oh baby, bail me out
I wanna see you in the flesh
I wanna feel your body brush against me
Hear your conversations in the middle of the show
I wanna kiss you in the venue
Taste the whiskey on your breath
Before we're positively miserable and stuck inside again
I wanna party like it's 2021

Lightning in a Bottle

This doesn't suit me, truth be told
Doesn't suit anyone that isn't trying to console
You're into buying what you're sold
They never tell you that
You pick a side they keep you talking
Repeating lines you think you're mocking
'Cause you're the goods that they are stalking
Nobody told me that I'd win the lotto
Still I keep scratching that ticket 'til tomorrow
Then the alcohol soaks into the body
And still the lies keep getting bolder
You strike a match and I run away from you
Feeling the fire coming closer
It's all around me I don't know what to do
Hide in a hole until it's over
Piss on the flames until they smolder
Nobody told me that I would win the lotto
Still I keep scratching that ticket 'til tomorrow
I turn my delicate pride into bravado
And keep on catching that lightning in a bottle
