No, there wasn't any particular specific reason or anything
No, there wasn't any particular specific
reason or anything. I just decided I didn't quite
like it much, the nights were such a drag and
the days were crazed in a way. Seemed like the
atmosphere wasn't clear. Their eyes were all fogged up
and I don't know but it was like their minds appeared cluttered
and every time I muttered some non-sensical line,
it was like they took
the blind cord and wrapped it around the
darn thing, twisted it up from its original
meaningless state into something dismal
and I wish I hadn't spoke. The place became
dreary and smoke screens took hold and it was like
there was this cold vacant air, stares from strangers thick
as Gobi dust peered into me until I became faded,
disappeared.
And just as I deliberately turned to walk away
the way a player folds from a poker hand,
they damn near got me to play another
with a slick trick shuffle. I almost fell for it, too,
but no sooner did I sit back down to pick up my cards,
a hard wind blew through and I just knew it was time
to blow that joint.
So no, it wasn't like anybody said anything even
vaguely impolite – Jeb's manners were all right,
Daniel's smiled like he always smiles, his big
bright pearlies a gem, his whiskey breath not
especially offensive or anything and Ellen,
as usual, wore a pleasant attitude to top off
her neatly pressed casual blue cotton dress, which
by the way, matched her eyes. But Cheryl didn't seem
the least surprised when I made my weak excuses
and left.
So, yeah, sometimes it's not the jokes in poor taste or the
lack of graciousness of the host or the remote location
or even the lousy food, it's just that you feel sorta diminished
or on the verge of being dead and the smell of it from
inside your nose is frigging nauseating and no matter
how much you try, you really don't know why but you
realize you gotta go, so no, there wasn't any particular
specific reason or anything, as I said.

sometimes are not like other times
sometimes are times of their own
sometimes you just don't get it
sometimes they just don't get you
sometimes you gotta go sometimes
sometimes are just like sometimes
sometimes are times of their own
sometimes you just don't get it
sometimes they just don't get you
sometimes you gotta go sometimes
sometimes are just like sometimes
