lyrics

Back in school I play the fool to win her
They call her a sinner, I’m her tool.
Her memories are cruel, weather gets cool
Classmates all drool, I don’t mind

Please don’t find me strange
I can rearrange
Change the flaws that you recognized in me
Live the lie you would like to see
Die as slow as you want me to
I am redesigned, redefined, free

He’s insane he’ll always feign the victim
I know I’ll addict him with my brain
He goes with the grain, staves off the pain
Bathes in the rain, stains my mind

He’s been kind to me
Can I disagree?
He’s the same old game that I played for the
Better part of yesterday
I can’t blame him forever, but
The failed suicide terrified me
Now his eyes exorcise me
Please don’t take me in, connection is sin, let us begin again

about

The Distractions Connecticut

The Distractions are a post-industrial-sludge-ska-metal-punk-flies-on-shit type o' deal. If you play your cards right, you might just figure out what that means some day, kid. We don't play your average dilly-dally rock and roll bullspit. We play that real dilly-dally rock and roll bullspit. And remember, don't leave the oven on!
Love,
Dad
