Granny's Kitchen

from Fantastic says the Shark by Michael Ellis

about

Big chunks of my past are lost to patterns of self-depreciation and love was but one more piece in the game. The only place I found acceptance was here. The very last passage instantly sits me back down every time.

lyrics

When i was young i had a system
Cultivated over years
A downward spiral
Running straight as if on rails
Silent catastrophies

And still looking in, looking in
From the rain i am looking in, looking in
There's no denying i'm looking in
I am looking in
Longing to find a way to break
Away from the circle of flaws and mistakes

And then it happens all again
I look for love and find a friend
Looking back once again feeling like a fool
I find myself on my granny's kitchen stool
Trying hard to mend the world

It's not the end if there in sadness
Lies a new way to begin
But someone said that it is madness
Trying the same hoping to win

Looking in, looking in
From the rain i am looking, in looking in
There's no denying i'm looking in
I am looking in
Longing to find a way to break
Away from my circle of flaws and mistakes

And then i do it all again
I look for love and find a friend
Looking back and again being someone's fool
I find myself on my granny's kitchen stool
The only comfort in the world

Life moves on as we're told
It seems so vague as i get old
Quote unquote deliverance can take on many forms
And sometimes ...

Quote unquote deliverance can take on many forms
But sometimes one just needs to get laid
