Shrink Me - Who Wrote Holden Caulfield, Pt. II Lyrics

I started off on page 1 and I finished 2 days later
You tried making small talk on the bus, but I wouldn't have it
I was halfway through a book I borrowed from my brother
I was feeling something like I was living a cold winter, but it was summer

And it still is and I am sweating in my bedroom
This is the first time I have kept myself in some sort of routine
And fuck it's hot out, so I'm trying to keep cooler
This is the last time I will make myself believe I can break free

Is it vain to think I have something to say for once?
I tried writing fiction, but I never came close to a conclusion
At least I have Andrew Sean Greer and Adam Haslett
And don't forget that Steven Dunn is coming out with something soon

And I'm alive and I am sweating in my bedroom
This is the first time I have kept myself in some sort of routine
And fuck it's hot out so I'm trying to keep cooler
This is the last time I will make myself believe I can break free

People say they haven't been themselves, but who knows who they are?
They might be better off that way

And so I'm here and I'm sweating in my bedroom
This is the first time I have kept myself in some sort of routine
And fuck it's hot out, so I'm trying to keep cooler
This is the last time I will make myself believe I can break free
