The Narcissist Cookbook
the Pattern
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
[Verse 1]
Well, I've been sleeping until 4 or 5 in the afternoon
I haven't said a word in weeks
When your body clock somehow syncs up with one of Saturn's moons
Everybody else seems hard to reach
[Chorus]
But I'm not fucking blind, man
I know what I'm doing
I can see the pattern
But I don't know what I can do about the way I am
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
[Verse 2]
All those haunted places we return to in our dreams
Tucked away in our brains
My high school was demolished when I was 17
But a part of me is still walking down the corridors there
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
(Can you see the pattern, can you see the pattern?)
Please try not to wake me
I'm not finished dreaming
There is still a secret that I am yet to find in here
[Chorus]
I'm not fucking blind, man
I know what I'm doing
I can see the pattern but I don't know what I can do about the way I am
The way I am
The way I am
The way I am
[Verse 3]
One day I will rise up
Light from lack of baggage
Fresh to meet the sunrise
But I don't know what I can do about the way I am
