So much to say with nowhere to start
Broken-hearted ballads of your salad days are so bizarre
And taking photographs like modern art
To substitute the absolutely futile ways you fall apart
Finally feel like myself again
Containing what mainly is relevant
I tend to move in a groove less than vacant
Why do I act so evasive?
Seeking to serve, but it's safe to say
"No I got to much on plate"
Begging your comrades and making fake promises
Oddly you often confide in a grave
I no longer fight all urges to cry it keeps me alive
Taking it by, day by day in the fire I can lie
Oh God, I'd like to think I've left that all behind
But days go by and I don't like the void I see inside my eyes
Someday you'll find these words about me
Oh look, the pulse here is dead and gone
Let's straighten out our brain and body
Let's suffer straight down the narrow line
What would it take to cover my face
Leave it to fate, take it straight through my aching body?
Sorry I fake it I was insane
I'll save the date cuz I had it made all along
And I reserve the right to never air it out
My conscious conjures mantras much to sickening to say out loud
Trust me when I say I have no hit box or a need for help
There are no words more evil than the ones that I say to myself
Met me halfway to the light
Break me down cuz I don't mind
Impressing people I don't like
These circles break lord by and by
I've only been here thirty years
Landlocked on this dry earth
Tied down to mind that finds its safe place in those "yes sirs"
And I wanna think I've left that in the past
But days go by and I'm still hauling up that hill with all my bags
Someday you'll find these words about me
Oh look the pulse here is dead and gone
Let's straighten out our brain and body
Let's suffer straight down the narrow line
What would it take to cover my face
Leave it to fate, take it straight through my aching body?
Sorry I fake it I was insane
I'll save the date cuz I had it made all along
Cuz I had it made all along
Cuz I had it made all along
Cuz I had it made all along
