Don't Bother

there was a tropical storm out my window

the cats were asleep and alive and she still loved me

someone once told me the future is history

and the past is still happening, and the present's a mystery

but i didn't believe them, cause i don't believe anything

whether i read it or see it on tv

everything is far away, and i'm in my head all day

and nothing is bothering me

it was raining as hard as this, as hard as it ever did

but this is the future, and that was a funeral

and it's typical, isn't it?

to think of it as a catalyst

the death of a loved one, like you're shot out of a cannon

but i didn't feel that way, cause i don't feel anything

unless i get to read it or rent the dvd

everything is far away, and i'm in my head all day

and nothing is bothering me

the golden age is gonna end before it starts

i'm gonna make a million friends

and then i'll throw them all away, just like the old ones

see, i've got a vested interest in breaking hearts

i had all the answers right there in front of me

but i spent all day sleeping and playing nintendo

someone once told me the journey of a thousand miles

it starts with just one thought in your head

but i don't think i thought it, cause i never think at all

i only read comic books and the words on the tv

everything seems far away, but it's gonna be here one day

the future's as tall as a tree

but i wouldn't know it, cause i don't know anything

and nothing is bothering me
