Strange Phobia

from The Pause by Pursesnatchers

/

about

Written and recorded April 9-10, 2020. Fears and neuroses that might have seemed overblown a month earlier were now par for the course.

lyrics

Well it’s one thing to lean on stupidity
As if you can get back where you used to be
But you fear what you fear you can’t come up for air

Remember I prayed for your sanity
When you tried to outrun the things you couldn’t see
Well don’t get your back up I’m not here to disrupt your phobias
You’re not over ‘em

And you got such a strange phobia
Yeah you got such a strange phobia
You don’t know when enough is enough
Yeah you got such a strange….. phobia

Conditions outside are in jeopardy
I don’t know what to do with this energy
Got my windows so clean I’m hallucinating

I’m not trying to prey on your sympathy
I can’t say what I would do differently
I may act like I’m tough but you’re calling my bluff
Like you’re sick of me
I’m sick of me too

And I got such a strange phobia
Yeah I got such a strange phobia
I don’t know when too much is too much
Yeah I got such a strange…. phobia

But it’s not such a strange phobia
No it’s not such a strange phobia
Coming in live from dystopia
We got such a strange….
