I've Hardly Been Lyrics

Rationalized confusion, memento morial
You're turning ugly into ease, you're naked in a towel
Well pride's a swollen subset
It will never never never pipe down

At the yoga olympics, murdered by a single kick
You tower over everything the rest are dog tits
The cemetery headstone is a rock in the rain, the rain
Is pain

I've hardly been
Cannot get in
Unlike the sky:
Wide and never lost

The fallacy of selflessness, the friendship etiquette
Normal is weirder than you would care to admit
Fatigued by socialized
You're tired and tender

I went to see a "go to gigs alone" type of band
They elucidate something that all alone understand
The shab ability to locate quagmire hearts on the map
It's a trap!

I've hardly been
Cannot get in
Unlike the sky:
Wide and never lost

*fatigued by social lives

I love this song. extremely amazing word play. genius. profound. inherently frustrating. it is in its construction seemingly nature-less, yet as perfect as nature. truly awesome. SM is one.

He think is discussing meditation and "non-dual suchness".. awareness of self and how the ego is constantly detracting from self. he is talking about the difficulties in experiencing this nirvana thus "I've hardly been".. btw difficulties in nirvana doesn't make any sense; it is the easiest thing to do and thus nirvana...
