Toast to the Extras

Swimming on the surface

It's a hell of a lot safer up here

Ain't prepared to dive

And uncover all my darkest fears

This ain't no covert operation

I don't have that much concentration

Staring at the clock

And my patience is wearing thin

One more down the gullet

Keeps me from jumping out of my skin

This ain't no covert operation

I'm lost in this fog of contradiction

I toast to the extras

I drink to them cause they don't talk too much

They fill up space and entertain

And when I cut em loose, they don't make a fuss

They all add up to zero in my mind

They're just here to cure the boredom for the night

Now sometimes this leaves me feeling hollow

That's when I take refuge in my pillow

This ain't no covert operation

I'm not even ready for confession

I toast to the extras

I drink to them cause they don't talk too much

They fill up space and entertain

And when I cut em loose, they don't make a fuss

They all add up to zero in my mind

They're just here to cure the boredom for the night

That's right
