Entertain me for the tenth hour in a row again   Anesthetize me with your gossip and many random antecdotes   and fill every hour with activity ear candy   drop me off at intersections in any city metropolitan      and keep me in this state   and keep me purgatorying   and rock me back to sleep   this is far more than I have bargained for      Start every week with a breakneck urgent design   And end every speed day with my   briefcase representing free time   Spending my fumes my purchases become my lifeline   Please give my love to my family   I'll doubtfully be home at Christmas time      Don't disturb me in this state   please leave me purgatorying   I'll be damned if I'm to wake   This is far more than I am equipped for      I've held you up like a deity   like you're the sole owner of wings   This unrequited tunnel of vision   and I wonder why I've not been writing      Please keep me in this state   Please keep me purgatorying   I'll be damned if I'm to wake   This all is far more than I have bargained for   I'll be damned if I'm to wake   This is far more than I'm equipped for
