lyrics

welcome to
no amount of stoned makes you feel okay
welcome to
this year's alone
brought to you by christmas day
welcome to
the darkness into which prayin' people pray

yeah it's quiet here except for this song
now that everybody's gone
but hey, least you don't have to play along
today
you don't have to play along

welcome to
something like elation when you first open your eyes
just cuz it means
that you must have finally got to sleep last night
welcome to
the precipice between groundlessness and flight

yeah it's quiet here except for this song
now that everybody's gone
but hey, least you don't have to play along
today
you don't have to play along

besides which
welcome to
taking the good stuff down off of the shelf
and welcome to
the art of conversation with yourself
welcome to
humming an unbroken tune
all day long yes it's quiet here...

but hey, least you don't have to play along
today
you don't have to play along
