“Melatonin 130” is the 6th track on “Mammalian Sighing Reflex”.
The song is presumably about not being able to cope with anxiety, stress, and other struggles no matter how much advice, coping strategies or medication Wilbur takes; sometimes wanting to just resort to self-isolation and distance hims...
[Verse 1]
The melatonin doesn't work
Anymore
The Valium just stops the hurt
But not the cortisol
If I could teleport from here
I'd choose the Midway Atoll
Or just the space in between your neck
Where it meets your shoulder
But just this once (But just this once)
I'd like to see the world in three dimensions
[Verse 2]
Keep wasting 'til you're shed, we keep it simple
The breathing exercises hurt and don't do fuck-all
He said, "The beta-blockers work, but there's a system
The anxiety's not the cause, it's just a symptom"
[Verse 3]
But I know you
I'll live with you until our bones grow old
I'll still pick you like a scab or a mole
And I'll pull you into a dive or a stall
Ain't that miserable?
Ain't that miserable?
Ain't that miserable?
[Bridge]
Help, why the fuck do I still self-sabotage
When I'm finally happy?
Oh, oh
Woo, wa, wa, wa, oh, hey, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
So it turns out everyone just hopes to God you're failing
And if you claim that you heed my words
Then take this as a warning
Nothing around here fucking works
We're justified abhorrent
We're all apes with a diary book
And corporate reads your pages
[Outro]
I've just been doing, like, music and stuff
Mmm
