Safety from Wonder by Flower Crown Me A Queen

There’s nothing safer than some danger
Nothing happier than stress
Just enough to get up
And keep me out of bed
Take the mattress away
I’ll still sleep for a week
Unless I keep moving
Unless I decay

I am the buzzing in your brain
When you’re coming down again
Like a motor with no starter
A theoretical machine
Light me up, take me out
Show me off, make me proud
I’m so eager to please
Yeah, you know what I mean

It’s so stupid that I’m smart
Who gave me the controls
Who said I’ll do fine
When they brought me to this world
Take a hint, it gets better
When you’re off the beaten path
And make sure you forget you can always go back

I wish that I was clever
And I wish the art I made
Wasn’t dripping with irony
And mostly all fake
At least that’s what I tell
all my family and friends
I don’t want them to worry
That I want to be dead

It’s been 23 years
Since I wasn’t alive
It’s a personal record
Thanks for letting me try
I’m by no means the best
But I ain’t dead just yet
Have some faith in me, please
Let’s see what happens next
