Crayola Scents

I’ve gone out with a bang
Rang your house one too many times
And forgot all the lines I wanted to say
Oh well

Explode my brain
Numb the pain
You remind me why
It’s so refreshing to cry
Wake up my soul
Make me feel old
I long for crayola scents
My childhood amusements
Somewhere outside
I’ll hide in memories

And if you’re working too hard
In your cubical on a business card
Making conference calls all day
Where everyone talks with nothing to say
Oh well

Explode my brain
Numb the pain
You remind me why
It’s so refreshing to cry
Wake up my soul
Make me feel old
I long for crayola scents
My childhood amusements
Somewhere outside
I’ll hide in memories

Nine to fives followed by drinks in bars
Stumbling home to the tune of cat calls
Everyone wants a piece of your heart
Or ass, ask them why and they’ll lie
About your eyes

Explode my brain
Numb the pain
You remind me why
It’s so refreshing to cry
Wake up my soul
Make me feel old
I long for crayola scents
My childhood amusements
Somewhere outside
I’ll hide in memories

This grown up world you’re playing in
Makes me want to lay in bed with a book
Read the pictures under balloon light fixtures
Fall in love with the texture of my pillow
Oh well

I’ll just numb my brain
Dream of rain
You remind me why
It’s so refreshing to cry
Euthanize my soul
Lay me out in the cold
I long for crayola scents
My childhood amusements
Somewhere outside
I’ll hide in memories
With the old me
And your memory
