Inspired by Kristen Iskandrian's short story "I Am Happiest Alone, Thinking About Happiness"
lyrics
You keep on leaving your coat somewhere,
You can't keep going on like you care about it.
Your mother and her husband have got in a fight,
Someone told you everything was going to be alright, but you doubt it.
And then the light hits your glass and puts shadows all to shame,
And you start to believe.
And you say, "What are these pretty things?"
Your friends all drove to Ohio,
And you can't figure out why you don't wanna belong.
You go out with the young men,
Who fill you up their fiction and movies and songs.
And when you get scared, the DJ plays a new one,
A new one you love.
And you say, "What are these pretty things?"
And when the light hits your glass, the DJ plays a new one,
A new one you love.
And you say, "What are these pretty things? What are these pretty things?"
