numbers - goin' insane
my room is very small
upstairs at the end of the hall
inside it doesn't change
too small to rearrange
no one to talk to
?only my brain? ?and me?
?dysfunction? confusion and fear
i've lived there for five years
[unintelligible chorus x 4]
???
?hard to tell? ???
?my contract? ???
?emotional reality?
[unintelligible chorus x 2]

erase errata - retreat, the most familiar, extensive, i bet!
i'll abandon the premises
you won't have control of me
it's a circus in my house
everyone wants to come over to my house
abandon the premises
i won't let it run my life
circus in my house
everyone wants to come over to my house
retreat retreat, the most familiar
retreat retreat, to the things we know
retreat retreat, fall back
on the walls, spirits
in the halls and all around us
spectre

in the halls and all around us

erase errata - thief detests the criminal
??? a crime
?sent to here i was warned?
?made it/may not? seem like much ???
?not a sick? young thing
keep your self-help scene
no bank account
?don't/gonna? cut your hair
just stay out of the way
empty all the drawers
check your field of vision
make him count it out loud
and now go back into the cold dark night
sooner or later
in an effort to control my behavior
police found it necessary
to profile me
in an effort to control my behavior
people that look like this
people that have a style
people that wear their hair
who have a skin color
people who drive a car
people out late at night
people who appear my age
you'll find yourself a target
for police harassment
interrogation
police aggression
break the cycle
the disadvantaged
and maybe
i'll feel remorse
for stealing
