6.	Cloud Nine	4:32

Lyrics

leave me alone, i won't talk right now.
i hate the way my teeth click
when this bullshit stumbles out.
i am an old fool
always tapping on the sun,
but i see in four dimensions
and i know which way to run.

now it's bleeding through the windows
and grinning ear to ear.
it permeates my bedroom.
eclipses all my fears.
yes i'm breathing something different
than the words that's on display.
the future's only history
now my lungs embrace today.

here on cloud nine
talking shop is out of style
and we don't mind
gazing stars for just a while
here on cloud nine
there is time and time again
for the sublime

columns and rows
he swallows and rubs his nose:
"excuse me, but
where do we explode?
my lungs are on fire
because i'm breathing something different
than these numbers on display.
you plan for five but this year's mine
and i'll die before i cage.
