Blotter Acid Reflux Syndrome
Trouble's Symphony: Unraveling Life's Melody with Atmosphere
Lyrics
I got so much trouble on my
I have a lot of trouble on my mind
Ay, ay, ay-ay, ay
Repetitive vocal expressions
Yesterday I saw two houseflies going at it in the bathroom
Observation of two houseflies mating in the bathroom
Like a couple of barflies
Comparing the flies to people at a bar
It was disgusting but not 'cause of the fucking
Disgusted, but not due to the act itself
It's just a random thought I had
Random thought about everyone being offspring of something
That everyone's an offspring of (just something)
Reference to everyone being offspring of bacteria
A whole lotta bacteria
Highlighting the prevalence of bacteria
Staining on the rocky banks of Lake Superior
Reference to pollution on Lake Superior
Tried to watch the weather, keep a finger on the artery
Attempting to stay informed and aware
Stop pretending that you ain't left the party with a part of me
Addressing a past relationship and its impact
I believe you're from the future and you came back to waste me
Suggesting a futuristic origin and a potential threat
But I think you probably won't 'cause you like me
Expressing doubt about the perceived threat
We in the shadow of the shade of the moonlight
Being in a shadow, possibly a metaphor for uncertainty
Let's say goodnight while it's still a goodnight, aight?
Suggesting saying goodbye while things are still good
I'm feeling like maybe it's getting closer to closing time
Feeling that the end is approaching
Lock the door, flip over the sign
Closing a metaphorical door to troubles
And I've got so much trouble on my mind
Reiteration of having trouble on the mind
I'm spilling my bottle upon your table
Spilling a bottle, perhaps symbolizing emotional overflow
I'm as willing and able as a tornado
Expressing readiness and capability like a tornado
I wear it like the heart you tattooed to your sleeve
Comparing emotions to a tattoo on the sleeve
You tear it all apart to gather what you need
Emotional vulnerability and its consequences
Stop all the madness, box up the fragments
Advocating for stopping the chaos and preserving fragments
Stick a book of stamps to the top of the package
Packaging emotions and memories with a stamp
Say, "Please deliver this to the previous owner"
Sending emotions to a past version of oneself
I wrote my name up in the corner and the S was a cobra
Symbolic representation of the name with a cobra
Mix up the ingredients, how I showed ya
Recalling a previous demonstration or instruction
You probably think I'm an idiot though, don't ya?
Addressing a potential perception of foolishness
Never thought I'd grow to be anything more
Reflecting on personal growth and expectations
Then just another Gomer being told to "Shut up, soldier"
Referencing a dismissive attitude towards oneself
Looking over your shoulder before stepping over the line
Being cautious before crossing boundaries
I could turn the water in your toilet bowl into wine
Claiming an extraordinary ability, possibly metaphorical
And I've got so much trouble on my mind
Reiteration of having trouble on the mind
I can't help but to think back, back before the shrink wrap
Reflecting on the past, before facing challenges
Back before the soundman was sabotaged with feedback
Recalling a time before external interference
All I wanted was to be a part of something larger
Desire to be part of something meaningful
Then the sum of the parts, my dog's a bark at the sharks
Being wary of potential threats to personal growth
And it's my darkest parts that seem to get all the shine
Duality of dark and shining aspects of oneself
It's when I start my departure then I remember the rhyme
Reflecting on departing and remembering a rhyme
It goes "I got so much trouble", or, nevermind
Intentionally leaving a phrase incomplete
Refuse to lose
Asserting a refusal to lose despite challenges
