I write songs sometimes and if I like them I record them and if I really like them I record them again in a way that is *slightly* less sloppy.

Lyrics

I feel like I'm in a tortoise shell
trapped in solitary hell
Sometimes I feel like a trillionaire
but today the world just does not care

I don't know what we're coming to
What is the matter with you?
And what's the matter with me?
Why can't we be like we used to be?

If you want to stay with me
well then honey just stay with me
If you want me to go away
I wish that you just would say

I don't know what we're coming to
What is the matter with you?
And what's the matter with me?
Why can't we be like we used to be?

Its hard to know what you should think
Things sometimes just fall out of sync
Blinded by the fork in the eye
the important thing is that you were right

I don't know what we're coming to
What is the matter with you?
And what's the matter with me?
Why can't we be like we used to be?

I don't know what we're coming to
What is the matter with you?
And what's the matter with me?
Why can't we be like we used to be?

The singer trapped in a musical shell of his own devising.  I keep finding new layers of meaning with this track, and I like them all.
