Look at this twice-broken scarlet dismay
Cigarette smile at the end of the day
You're a mess, no
Falling to pieces at best
Throw stones at the mirror
Here's an example of why you should try
To distance yourself from the notion of
Falling in love so unnecessarily
Laid low by thinking it over
Fear has an eight-legged weakness
You've got to settle the scores
Scream and climb up on a chair
You're afraid of what you've become
You're afraid of what you've become...
Spinning a web comes with no guarantees
With every word that runs under the carpeting
My guess is you're getting desperate
To hide this stigma of yours
Suddenly I understand what you said
About having eyes in the back of your head but
I just don’t get the way you act like a trap set waiting to spring
Fear has an eight-legged weakness
You've got to settle the scores
Scream and climb up on a chair
You're afraid of what you've become
You're afraid of what you've become...
The moral of this story captured at last
Under the mouth of an overturned glass
And it’s time to stop telling me you've been lied to
I already know
Fear has an eight-legged weakness
You've got to settle the scores
Scream and climb up on a chair
You're afraid of what you've become...
ALSO on the subject of spiders, here's a bit from a clickbait article he wrote in 2015. What a jerk 😤 (affectionate).
