DINOSAUR BONES

I'm more alone than dinosaur bones

Buried beneath the fragile crust where we all sleep

 

Why don't you pick up your phone

The color of the couch is turning red as it calls my name

Why don't you pick up your phone

The weatherman says to unplug my microwave

 

But maybe I'm just hearing things

 

Decorated on the outside

But empty at my core

I feel so extinct

I'm beginning to think that I

Am a dinosaur

 

I feel out of place

Like a crater lost in space

Like a poor boy at a country club

Like a trumpet out of tune

Like a humpback in the Mohave

Like a flag out on the moon

 

Decorated on the outside

But empty at my core

I feel so extinct

I'm beginning to think that I

Am a dinosaur

Am a dinosaur

Am a dinosaur

 

Decorated on the outside

But empty at my core

I feel so extinct

I'm beginning to think that I

That I am the bones

That I am the bones

 

Decorated on the outside

But empty at my core

I feel so extinct

I'm beginning to think that I

Am a dinosaur
