Cover art for I Am A Scientist lyrics by Guided by Voices

it's about substance abuse

if you don't understand, consider yrself lucky

i am an incurable just unlock my mind ease yr painful lives the hole i dig is bottomless nothing else can set me free

think: "drinker's peace" without the ironic distance. think elliott smith's "a distorted reality is now a necessity to be free"

he speaks in a language immediately recognizable to anyone with an addictive personality and even the slightest bit of self-awareness. you know what i'm talking about.
