lyrics

So of course the first thing I do is run out to the car. What would you do in my shoes? Start the engine, and pop the tape in.

And it’s numbers, just numbers, numbers just numbers! It's numbers, just numbers repeating on a loop. Ah wait a minute I'm pretty sure those are coordinates. I look up the latitude the longitude. 4 hours 44 minutes away. Looks like I’m leaving Ohio. Let’s go!

So about five hours later i find myself in a forest. The air here’s different. The trees just seem different. Not quite sure how to explain it. What would you do in my shoes? Keep looking. Find something!

And it’s something yes it’s sure something that I find alright. Buried deep in the forest is a tree coated pure crimson standing absolutely defiant in the starlight. I see it clearly, right in front of me. A weird red fruit hanging down from a branch so low. I grab it, take a nice big bite, chew it up into a million tiny little pieces. I savor it, I savor it real slow. This is it, this is it, let’s go!

And so I suddenly surrender to all that comes next. It’s pain, it’s excitement, it's a disruption in the flow, like a snake eating its own tail or a computer program beating the world’s best player in a surprisingly short game of go.

The pain comes all at once. Ahh I feel it everywhere! The pain comes all at once I feel it everywhere.
