Comfortably Dumb

I am afraid!
 Afraid of my shadow, so I don't go outside
 Afraid of my dentist, so my teeth are fallin' out
 My canines are septic, all flesh and decay
 'Cause I only bite if I'm threatened, afraid
 Fight or flight switch, on when it broke
 An uneasy punchline, a horrible joke
 The fictional frontline to which I've been drafted
 Will bend to my will if it ever should happen
 But wartime cares not for joy of existing
 I can't help but wonder the world I am missing
 I am terrified of what I have become
 Comfortably dumb, endearing to some
 Peddling scares in the place of a passtime
 But I'm just a lily disguised as a landmine
 For short bursts of time, I puff out my chest, but
 My asthma requires me to take baby breaths
 The closest connections, transmissions in code
 And I miss my memaw when I'm on the road
 I'm oddly obsessed with being depressed
 I'd heal if I wanted, but likely remain a mess
 I am terrified of what I have become
 Comfortably dumb, endearing to some
 I am terrified of what I have become
 Comfortably dumb, endearing to some
 And I am terrified of what I have become
 Observed from a distance, endearing to none
 I am afraid!
