Sometimes you look so beautiful
But love is just a chemical
Passing through my head this time the songs will write the words
To the music I've been making the walks that i've been taking
Have been getting longer
This time the songs will write the words
I'm sick of being sick of being thirsty for a drink of
The one thing you could give me if I could just forgive me
Block the door with the bookend
Brace the table and the ceiling meanwhile books will fall on our heads

    General Comment:i'm not completely sure if these are right, but some of the lyrics up there dont sound right at all. like:

    "the WALKS that i've been taking"
    and
    "lock the door with the bookend" like those things that hold books up, on shelves.
    "BRACE the table and the ceiling." it just sounds more like it, and makes more sense.
    and if you listen really hard it sounds like he says "meanwhile books will fall on our heads." its all jumbled up, but it is definately not fall in.

    but nice try dude. twothirtyeight is the rockinest.

    General Comment:to me I think it means that people are always telling him that he doesn't have control over things. . .love is just a chemical. The songs write the words to his songs, he doesn't. But he doesn't agree, he watns to "just forget me" (his body) and be in love/create (get the "one thing you can get me") sincerely, instead of just believing it's a bodily function.
