Lyrics
Today I woke up in a tiny plastic cup
Waking up in a confined and seemingly insignificant situation, represented by a "tiny plastic cup."
Spiders in my hair, crawling everywhere
Feeling overwhelmed and invaded, possibly by life's challenges symbolized as spiders.
In my mouth, behind my eyes, keep me warm inside
Experiencing internal struggles and seeking comfort within oneself.
Flown here on my back, this is my hiding place
Metaphorically arriving at a personal refuge, possibly to escape from external pressures.
Let the world never see all the strange sides of me
Desiring to hide unconventional aspects of oneself from the world.
And it's so believable, I'm bad and bad is good
Reflecting on societal perceptions of good and bad, suggesting a rebellious attitude.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover
Embracing a lifestyle associated with excess and consequences, likened to the aftermath of drugs and alcohol.
The priests all had been buried in concrete
Commenting on religious figures, possibly implying their burial in concrete symbolizes their rigidity or unresponsiveness.
I confessed my sins to clowns and buildings in the ground
Confessing sins to unconventional entities, highlighting a departure from traditional forms of repentance.
I found a mistake in the way that we were made
Recognizing a flaw or error in the way humans are created or how society functions.
A dress up party at my house where I'll be someone else
Expressing a desire for escapism through a dress-up party, adopting different personas.
Let the world never see all the strange sides of me
Reiterating the theme of hiding one's true self from the world.
And it's so believable, I'm bad and bad is good
Challenging societal norms by embracing a perceived "bad" identity.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover

And we're so original, I'm bad and bad is good
Asserting individuality and nonconformity.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover
Reiterating the connection between the persona and the negative effects of drugs and alcohol.
Drive fire engines through the desert and the rain
Embarking on daring and possibly destructive endeavors, symbolized by driving fire engines through challenging environments.
I'll search the shipwrecks in the ocean for a flame
Searching for passion or meaning in life, even in difficult circumstances.
Never caught a sickness that didn't list me as a friend
Claiming resilience to illnesses or difficulties that typically befriend others.
Never made a friendship that didn't kill me in the end
Highlighting the destructive nature of friendships and connections.
Let the world never see all the strange sides of me
Repeating the theme of concealing unconventional aspects of the self.
And it's so believable, I'm bad and bad is good
Continuing to challenge societal norms and expectations.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover
Reiterating the association with the negative consequences of substance abuse.
And we're so original, I'm bad and bad is good
