The Sobriquets - Jaked lyrics

Sitting on a slanted bed in a room with a slanted door And it seems like everything lately has been at angles to the rest of the world My cigarette slants into the ashtray like the sunrise slanted in through my window I'm getting used to seeing everything sideways it's easier that way you know But I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this Well she used to lie beside me sideways sidling up to my back Now she smiles a slanted smile slants her body back away from me Sun been screwing my head on crooked I've been thinking things I know ain't right And she angles me a question and I give a crooked answer I'm fine But I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this But I've been feeling crooked lately like I've been telling lies to you I've been feeling crooked lately but sometimes I guess that's nothing new So if my version of what you said and what I did comes out a little skewed You can a**ume that what you saw is probably closer to the truth And a crooked rain slants in my face as I walk up on my slanted street From a bar where I tipped a few try and see another side And I thought I saw you in the eyes of a girl I pa**ed on my way home But I lean my body forward as the street and you fall away behind But I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this I have made it my goal to stand upright through all of this Sitting on a slanted bed in a room with a slanted door
