Yeah there are still some lyrics that I think are wrong.
"by the look of the CLOCK [as noted above]
and it's TURNING INTO HOURS
and I've got nothing to look forward to
'cause I killed all the flowers"
The turning into hours line is a lot like the line in "Not So Dense" where he says "And I watch sixty minutes go by HOUR AFTER HOUR AFTER HOUR!" I think a big theme in this entire album is how sometimes life doesn't go anywhere, and this song is a perfect example.
It's not about how anything in particular about his life is really terrible, but it's just a drag. That's why he ends by saying "Things could be so much worse." But the song really shows how depressing life can be even when it's not all that bad.
Also the first line is definitely "And YOU cried all night," hence why YOU created a stream (out of tears).
Actually the fact that he sings about himself AND you is an interesting part of this song, it's like the two of them are living through this drag together, which makes this a really beautiful and unique song.
