lyrics

My girlfriend doesn't sleep anymore
She's too anxious about the grocery store.
I'd like to spend some time on the porch
Get a second story view onto the people below.
As long as I stay at home I feel like everything is kind of normal.
When I think I'll go for a walk I always make it short and I try not to cough.

Because I don't want people to think I'm a danger to their health.
It's hard not to imagine that they think I'm a threat,
I see germs on everyone else.
It's a reason to stay home like I ever needed one.
I feel safe in my room.
It's not an airport or a public bathroom.
I feel more control over remembering the things I touched and when to wash my hands.

I sleep enough to get me up late,
The city told me I've got nothing going this week.
I'm not rushing to the bus to my job,
Instead a recipe for bread is mine to fuck up.
Got all day to figure this out,
I activate the yeast and then go sit on the couch.
Come back in a half an hour, see the bubbles,
I think I just heard my roommate cough in the shower.

I don't want people to be a danger to my health.
It's hard not to imagine that I think they're a threat,
I see germs within myself.
I have postnasal drip.
My allergies are kicking in,
I'll be coughing all Spring,
Will they be scared of me?
