Metaphorically Speaking

from The Great Indoors by Glenn Case

/

lyrics

How'd I get
Where I am?
Don't question it
There's no plan

The world's a casino
And life is a slot machine
I hit the jackpot somehow
Yeah, I'm not swimming in cash
In the revenue streams
But still, I've won where it counts

When you're growing up
Time's a bottomless well
And your room is like Heaven
Other people are Hell
Sure, I may be a bum
That's not the worst I could be
If I'm speaking metaphorically

If I knew
How this works
Would that be
Like a curse?

The world's a casino
And life is a slot machine
I hit the jackpot somehow
Yeah, I'm not swimming in cash
In the revenue streams
But still, I've won where it counts

When you're growing up
Time's a bottomless well
And your room is like Heaven
Other people are Hell
Sure, I may be a bum
That's not the worst I could be
If I'm speaking metaphorically

Is it some kind of agency?
I'm not sure of that
Wandering aimlessly
I'm not shocked
Was there some kind of blueprint?
Think I've heard of that
Am I just being stupid?
Sure, why not?

When you're growing up
Time's a bottomless well
And your room is like Heaven
Other people are Hell
Sure, I may be a bum
That's not the worst I could be
If I'm speaking metaphorically

about

Glenn Case Spokane, Washington

I write music.

I listen to music.

I genuinely just love music.

I have a song available in "Rock Band" and that makes me smile.

Yeah, I'm the guy who did the soundtrack for "The New Adventures of Captain S".

I probably release too many albums, but I do attempt to find a good balance between quality and quantity.

Thank you.
