Conversation lyrics

I think it`s time we had a little conversation
Me and you
I`m willing to admit it`s overdue
See I`m feeling like life`s animation
And these two-dimensional story-boards are wearing thin
So let me have your exclusive undivided attention
Grab a blank notebook and a fresh pen
Where do I begin if I don`t know the origin?
How do I explain why I can`t sleep for weeks without medicine?
You wanna hear the most recent aggravation?
Every time I touch the mic I get a standing ovation
But it`s probably `cause there`s no seats in here
So let me see you on your feet in here
You got a man speaking here
But all they wanna do is cry into their beers
But that`s trivial, typical, predictable behavior
I can`t blame ya
I`d probably do the same without my savior
I come home at night and write scripture
But somewhere back there I lost the big picture
You paying attention, man?
This fifty bucks an hour ain`t cheap
And I didn`t come here to speak to dead meat
I guess that`s why the little tape recorder`s running
So you can play me back later, analyze my behavior
Give it to your neighbors and other strangers
Then y`all can laugh at my expenses, no pun intended
And make new conversation about the new patient you`re working with

Step one is to admit you`ve got a problem
Step two is to help your fucking self
Step three is theoretical
Some sort of positive progression toward the unattainable

I think it`s time we had a little conversation
Me and you
I`ve seen what you can do
Rearranging concrete mind states
Complicated mental cases putting on a happy face
Without booze or freebase
I got a good friend with a strong faith
He says if I can
