[00:01.15]Contrecoup
[00:03.39]You know what's wrong with me
[00:07.46]You know phrenology
[00:11.53]You saw my injury
[00:15.91]You can tell just by looking at my skull
[00:20.34]Contrecoup, on the rebound
[00:24.39]Contrecoup hurt me again
[00:28.89]And the second was worse by far than the first
[00:32.66]'Cause it made me limerent
[00:40.58]When my head was hit
[00:44.31]I bounced away from it
[00:48.50]Or as someone who is craniosophic would say,
[00:53.64]The brain went the opposite way
[00:57.29]Contrecoup, on the rebound
[01:01.33]Contrecoup hurt me again
[01:05.73]And the second was worse by far than the first
[01:09.59]'Cause the first one woke my feelings for you
[01:13.84]But the contrecoup made my words untrue
[01:17.94]And it left me limerent
[01:21.62]Which is to say, how it goes
[01:25.60]Cached in terms no one knows
[01:30.21]And as if the choice were slim
[01:34.30]As if there's no synonym
[01:59.30]You know what's wrong with me
[02:03.39]You know phrenology
[02:07.44]You saw my injury
[02:11.92]You can tell just by looking at my skull
[02:16.29]Contrecoup, on the rebound
[02:20.34]Contrecoup hurt me again
[02:24.73]And the second was worse by far than the first
[02:28.66]Though the impulse is strong, the connection is weak
[02:32.84]And I know what to say, but forgot how to speak
[02:36.85]When it made me limerent
[02:41.20]
