Bright Eyes – Forced Convalescence

Bright Eyes – Forced Convalescence Lyrics

Artist: Bright Eyes
Song: Forced Convalescence

Forced convalescence and bed rest
Staring contest
With the ceiling and my feet
Was momentarily conscious

Of the backflips
I’ve been doing in my sleep
I’m not afraid of the future
Have to suffer and repeat

I tend to agree
What happens will be
Pain of my own making
Cut short by eternity

Now I’ve recovered completely
Life is easy
Hula-hooping around the sun
The calendar’s little boxes

All these presents
Get to open every one
I’ll be prepared for the winter
And the summer

And beyond
Just keep tagging along
Till the feeling is gone
Amazed by the haystack

Needle to oblivion
In a daze
In the doorway
I stood crying for what was

In a trance
In a taxi
Just keep driving, please don’t stop
Out of the neighborhood, the multiverse

Iron and rust
Went out of town for the weekend
With my children
Built sandcastles in the sun

Catastrophizing my birthday
Turning forty
Ending up like everyone
There’s no escaping the housework

Or the bank clerk
Or the priest
They’re waiting for me
In my Egyptian sheets

The Seroquel’s working
It’s fighting my fantasies
In the dark
At a distance

I see everything at once
Feel the wind
Through the window
And I’m overcome with love

Interdimensional, no obstacles
Mountains and dust
