Thesaurus Rex - Wristwatch
Ambushed by a metaphor
My watch fell off my wrist
Through a sewer grate and landed
In a stagnant pool of piss
It sent me reeling toward the surface
I was gasping like a fish
I was grasping for a purpose
At the edge of the abyss
★ Chorus ★
So much for subtlety
So fucking obvious
Third-grade analogy
I shouldn't read into, into, into it
But God, it felt personal
I’ll never recover, it's
A cosmic conspiracy screaming
Time in the gutter
★ Verse 2 ★
Broke up with my long term
There goes three years down the trap
I got a four-year education
Now I'm working at the Gap
I waste my days on applications
I am nevеr getting back
Every second’s likе a wristwatch tick-a-tickin'
Falling through the cracks
★ Chorus ★
So much for subtlety
So fucking obvious
Third-grade analogy
I shouldn't read into, into, into it
But God, it felt personal
I'll never recover, it's
A cosmic conspiracy screaming
Time in the gutter
Time in the gutter
(Oh yeah, yeah!)
Hey, just got me thinking
★ Bridge ★
It's like a simile
It's a metaphor
It's like a simile
It’s a metaphor
It’s like a simile
It's a metaphor
★ Chorus ★
So much for subtlety
So fucking obvious
It’s a third-grade analogy
I know I shouldn't read into, into, into it
But God, it felt personal
I'll never recover, it's
A cosmic conspiracy screaming
Time in the gutter
Time in the gutter
Time in the gutter
