The Vine Lyrics

I bit into an apple

That fell into my lap

Where you laid your head down once

And read a paper back

Copy of Infinite Jest

You said you read it all last year

You couldn't help but fill my ears

And they were ringing like church bells

Now that I've stopped listening

You're a parody

Of all the books you read to me

I was lost in the puzzle of the mind

Illusion

Like a fog you left behind

Now I'm in the orchard picking knowledge from the vine

I know better now

Your words were like a watermark

Dissipating

They never soaked in before I wiped them away

Your grandeur was a hoax you'd try to get me to wear

It never fit right

I always said it was too tight

And it was tearing the the seams

Now that I've stopped wearing it

Your pseudo intellect

Stopped reaching up my sleeves

I was lost in the puzzle of the mind

Illusion

Like a fog you left behind

Now I'm in the orchard picking knowledge from the vine

I was lost in the puzzle of the mind

Illusion

Like a fog you left behind

Now I'm in the orchard picking knowledge from the vine

I know better now

(I know better now)

I know better now

(I know better now)

I know better now
