living like a living computer glitch.

Living in the land of automobiles.

If you trip and lose a tooth,
          Dm        Am             Bb F
You gotta knock the other side out as well.

Gouge both eyes out and you’ll see
      Dm      Am               Bb F
Empty sockets everywhere: self abyss.

So that I can see myself when we kiss.
