"Absolutely Necessary Never" lyrics - MODEST MOUSE

Never been quite what I meant to
I don't really expect to
But God, I want to build you a castle
Oh, God, I want to save you the trouble
Opening your mouth's a disaster
It doesn't matter if you were or weren't plastered
And I'm drinking all the blood from my shadow
Drinking all the blood from my shadow

[Chorus:]
Absolutely necessary, never
Absolutely necessary, never
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe

Layover in Denver, Colorado
They say that there's another underneath there
Blank shells in a shotgun
Accidentally fired, oh, I think I may have got one
And I killed, I killed my own shadow
And I killed, I killed my own shadow

[Chorus:]
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe sometimes
Absolutely necessary, never sometimes
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe

[Bridge:]
What does it all mean?
D'ya get high on your low self-esteem?
Did you fall on your own only dream
And crush it until it was all broke?
Good goddamn, what a hassle
I stand in line, I'm a king at White Castle
And I'm waiting to go home
Yeah, I'm waiting just to get to go home

[Chorus:]
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, never
I'm approached to be beyond reproach
Absolutely necessary, maybe
Absolutely necessary, maybe sometimes
Oh, absolutely necessary, never, sometimes
Absolutely necessary, maybe
