Kevin Devine - A Flatline Blur Lyrics


Kevin Devine Lyrics

A Flatline Blur Lyrics
My friends are working on avoiding me

So when we meet I keep my mouth real busy

Talk out my nervous energy

It never works

I throw darts at the wall and get sloppy



But it's alright now

If I seem surprised, it's just a joke I'm trying out

But if it floats, I guess I'll keep it around



A woman gestures lazily

Through the hoods in my eyes I see her shaking her jewelry

It casts a perfect light on me

I feel moved and that's strange

But lately, I've been acting really strangely

So it's alright now

I'm keeping distracted to blunt my reactions

And anyhow

You think less when there's less for you to think about



A paralyzed puppet sits stiff in the window

Grinding his teeth and playing piano

All his songs bleed together in a flatline blur

A broken litany of worthless words

Creating space while your drinks get served

I know it gets on your nerves

Just try to pretend like it's not work



A little denial never hurts
