SONG:A Cleaner Light

A high
that's a swell take on this situation
i was trying to rectify
i was trying to skip out on this high
keep away from the freaks on the fringe
they only talk to you
'cause you give them a good excuse to cry
But in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
This strange old sunshine beats me senseless
but it's supposed to be keeping me healthy
it's a lie
you're a strange old thing that keeps me senseless
but you're supposed to be keeping me company
But in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
I wake up feeling fragile
it's nothing the tv couldn't cure
or lying here for my whole life
But in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a cleaner light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
in a better light, it's ok
They only talk to you 'cause you're there
