about

Don DeLillo's Underworld is Infinite Jest for people who think they're cooler and smarter than the guy who has Infinite Jest on his shelf

lyrics

Sergei's playing that new film again
And no one understands it
And no one understands him

Repeats the crucial scenes
Explains them metaphorically
Erases all of our blank faces

He has these ancient thoughts
He knows he must keep bottled up
In spite of our trusting growing new love

He saves them for a day
They don't get in his fucking way
And if that morning comes
Fulfills a prophecy of none

And when those lights go off inside his head
He'll get over it, he says
And if that darkness shows its face again
He'll get under it instead

(Extreme reality dreams)
(Horror movie screams)
(Echo distantly)

Sergei came to me with problems that he couldn't speak
Drew a picture of his curse
Made it a million times worse

And now I'm hostage to this ever toxic point of view
In my brain
Smog thicker as the time fades

And I can't help but think that someone should do anything
Providing
The details aren't paralyzing

The last I saw my friend
He left my place
Said never again

Don't know what he's doing now
And I sure hope I don't find out
