*Dominic Owen Mallory wrote "Don't press my head to the floor and call it a ceiling"

lyrics

Could I get you a bag or a cookie with that?
Is there anything else you'd like to take?
Am I singing this right? It kept me up all night
now I can't seem to stay awake.
I've got the money to make it until my next paycheck
and the lessons in patience were free
Pick up the cards you're dealing and the onions you're peeling
Why don't you cry over something real for me?
They "press your head to the floor and call it a ceiling"*
but you better hang on, on to the feeling

You've gotta hang on to the feeling,
can't let nobody steal it
cause if its the one you've got to hang on
to that feeling.

It isn't magic who people become in traffic
but it sure is distracting from something.
You start to feel like the only one, or only important one
and that's a problem in your brain.
I wonder who worked the pizza place in LA with young Tom Waits
and if they're still there today.
Serving slice through the heart of Saturday night,
I wish them luck and I wish them all more time
but I really wish they could just hang on
to the feeling.
