Solid Lyrics
Is what I am is a plastic man
Gazing out across a plastic land
And everyone is just a thing
Sit and listen to bells of plastic ring
And I’m a genius doing something wrong
Using real words in made up songs
I could cut myself and nothing would come out
‘cause the blood is frozen solid in my veins
I should know by now that I could cut myself
‘cause I’m solid and it’s always been that way
Here’s the song that I sing
An imitation of the real thing
Here’s the time, it doesn’t pass
Here’s the sand frozen in the hourglass
Touch my skin and know that I can feel
But I can’t tell you if feeling’s real
I could cut myself and nothing would come out
‘cause the blood is frozen solid in my veins
I should know by now that I could cut myself
‘cause I’m solid and it’s always been that way
Gazing out across a plastic land
And everyone is just a thing
Sit and listen to bells of plastic ring
And I’m a genius doing something wrong
Using real words in made up songs
I could cut myself and nothing would come out
‘cause the blood is frozen solid in my veins
I should know by now that I could cut myself
‘cause I’m solid and it’s always been that way
An imitation of the real thing
Here’s the time, it doesn’t pass
Here’s the sand frozen in the hourglass
Touch my skin and know that I can feel
But I can’t tell you if feeling’s real
I could cut myself and nothing would come out
‘cause the blood is frozen solid in my veins
I should know by now that I could cut myself
‘cause I’m solid and it’s always been that way

This song is really something u have have to think about in a way cause hes saying hes living in a artifcial world.. and i really like this line "And I’m a genius doing something wrong Using real words in made up songs" but i think that it just a thing of knowing that we put up this front of invincability.. We belive that a bad thing could never happen to us and its sad when it happens to someone else. I duno im losing my self lol
I really love the acoustic version he played on 1/11/01 - Mercury Lounge, New York. see www.wohlers.org
