Purgatorying

[Verse 1] Entertain me for the tenth hour in a row again Anesthetize me with your gossip and many random anecdotes And fill every hour with activity or ear candy Drop me off at intersections in any city metropolitan [Chorus 1] And keep me in this state And keep me purgatorying And sing me back to sleep [Verse 2] This is far more than I had bargained for Start every week with a break-neck urgent design And end every speed day with my briefcase representing free time Spending my fruits my purchases become my lifeline Please give my love to my family I'll doubtfully be home at christmas time Don't disturb me in this state Please leave me purgatorying [Chorus 2] I'll be damned if i'm to wake This is far more than i am equipped for [Verse 3] I've held you up like a deity Like you're the sole owner of wings This unrequited tunnel vision And i wonder why i've not been writing [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2]
