lyrics

(Intro)
It’s a new me, its second Timothy
Nice to meet you, where you been?
I could show you incredible things
Magic, madness, heaven, sin
I could show you incredible things

(Verse 1)
Collect a couple of my thoughts, real quick
But I promise I’m gonna take you on a nice field trip
We can go to new heights, in this life, feel this
Here’s a song for the times, when the falseness arrived
And you felt so deprived, like you never had a chance, they expelled your goodbye
You felt you should die, found a way to survive
Restart your heart, and excel from our eyes
This is for the times, when we yelled and we cried
I don’t ever wanna worry, that you held back your life
Move on, do right, I don’t even care what you’re doing, tonight
I upgrade myself, the only thing in my sight

(Hook)
…is a new me, it’s second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Old receipts, and my empty accounts
Now I survive off the highest amounts
It’s a new me, it’s second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, you see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Feel lonely, and full of doubt,
Now is the time, you can remake yourself

(Verse 2)
Some are up-tight, or too laid back
Some up all night, while others take a nap
Some fight to be treated right
Some light up, to be free from night
All I want, is some type of balance
I’m not a king, I don’t need a chalice
Pass up your dreams, that is actual malice
I don’t need a crown, don’t need a palace
I only want you, let’s just call you Alice,
I’m in wonderland, but I wonder if my plan
Will turn out to be another sacrificial lamb
All we had was a sacrificial lamb
Even with four legs, knew it couldn’t stand
We got some warmth and found some nourishment
I accept that it’s over, and look at this
I made a change, start over new
I’m sorry girl, you’re not used to
The improvements I made, all I welcome you to

(Hook)
…is a new me, it’s second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Old receipts, and my empty accounts
Now I survive off the highest amounts
It’s a new me, it’s second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, you see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Feel lonely, and full of doubt,
Now is the time, you can remake yourself

(Verse 3)
To the new girl, in my life
Who really knows, if you’ll be my wife
It all depends how the water flows
If this gets too deep, just hold your nose
Come on girl, let’s go, go, go
If you’re worried, we can take it slow
Welcome, it’s nice to meet you miss
She looks at me, and asks me if this

(Hook)
…is a new me, it’s second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Old receipts, and my empty accounts
Now I survive off the highest amounts
It’s a new me, its second timothy,
I’m not the same kid, that I used to be
I had to go and make a couple changes, you see
I had to grow up, have some love lost
It don’t matter what, cuz I’ll pay the cost (2x)
Feel lonely, and full of doubt,
Now is the time, you can remake yourself

(Skit – Richard Feynman)
I can live with doubt and uncertain and not knowing.
I think it’s much more interesting to live not knowing, than to have answers which might be wrong
I have approximate answers, and possible beliefs, and difference degrees of certainty about different things
But I’m not absolutely sure about anything. And many things I don’t know anything about
Such as, whether it means anything to ask why we’re here
And what the question might mean. I might think about it for a little bit
But if I can’t figure it out then I’ll go to something else
I don’t have to know an answer. I don’t feel frightened by not knowing things,
By being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is,
As far as I can tell. It doesn’t frighten me.
