Intro:

Pick up, Pick up...Pick up, Pick up...

Verse One:

Now I can't even think back. Self-induced amnesia has made its impact

Mental health produced at leisure was frayed once it was intact

I voluntarily refuse to remenisce

If I could choose any wish...I'd lose my genesis

And prove to my nemesis that I don't need Memory Lane on my way home

But I got lost and I needed a pay phone

Because I was in an unsafe zone...inside of a place unknown

Where unfamilliar faces roam (...and it's so strange)...

I've got no change...I could've sworn that I did when I left

My breath gets heavy with every lie and theft

I looked right and left...then I called people at my home collect

To tell them, "Things changed." But they just won't accept

I'm out of range...with no respect. Every time I asked for directions

All I got was dead ai, cut lines, and bad connections

People who would helo changed their number to unlisted

411 info left me unassisted. Wickedly twisted...

incidents. Is it coincidence? I choose to think so

Deep in thought, my eyes blink slow. Pictures appear like slide shows

My mind knows each and every single detail

Total recall is leaving me pale

Sick to my stomach...nautious...forces of nature bring my homing instinct

Its stink...is so distinct...now let me think...a minute

epiphany: This is the much traveled trail from my past

Now an unbeaten path...unfunny memories are now making me laugh.

Chorus

Verse Two:

Haaaaaa! The flashbacks of my past acts are numerous

Since out the uterus...Earth encounters ain't been that humerous

heheheheh...my laugh lines have been faked for the last time

I'm past my prime. Climaxing again is a task of mine

I'm homeward bound. Break out the map and atlas

I ask gas station attendants...and they just act pissed

I'm black listed...for not staying true to white lies

I fight lies...in darkness...heartless...until the night dies

Then I shed some light on what's the matter

Reflections in the looking glass self scatter when the hard stares make it shatter

7 years bad luck? Time's irrelevant

I'm searching for signs of intelligent minds, but find the element

Which blinds what the hell I think. Now I'm thinking...

"What time is it?" I see the 12:00 blinking

Check the position...of the sun...to see there is none

I figure there's an eclipse...so I look away to save my wisdom

The solar system left me stranded in a universe

Where I do reverse psychology. Apologies are made through my verse

Ain't nothing to do but curse when I'm frustrated

Making people disgusted. Plus, I'm mistrusted and hated

That's an understatement, but who really cares about my failure years?

I'm on an expedition...following my trail of tears

From when I cried, but...it dried up...and vaporized

I played your game, so where's my consalation prize? I'm taking lies

from faking guys...and gals...who want to be my pals...and peers

At this here pace, it'll take me a thousand years

To fins my way back...encompassing what they lack

It cost me most of my life, but still I'm thinking about a pay back

Decapitated...I lost my head, and fear is activated

I'm in a fog. My blood, sweat and tears evaporated

I back track to find my lost sense of direction

Stop, look, and listen...before I cross the intersection

There's much construction. I'm signaled with morse code

to take a detour. Somehow I end up on an off road

I squint my eyes...trying to find some street signs

I can only read strong thoughts. These people have weak minds

Trapped in a desert that to me looks like a sandbox

With damn NARCS...hold up, son...I'm noticing some landmarks

I rack my brain...knowing that I can't attack in vane

Upon return I promised myself not to act the same

But every so often my selective screen memory...will be my enemy

Metamorphasize and say, "Remember me?"

Getting me petro...wish I could kill the retro

But heck no...to much of my past I just can't let go

I'm just a stone's throw away from my home turf...which really is this whole earth

But claims like that have no worth

epiphany: And then it hits me...the reason why I'm dizzy

Is because I've been traveling in circles keeping myself busy.

(Where is he?)

Chorus

Outro:

Deejay Perseus drumming.
