Back Alley Sound - Worthwhile lyrics

Artist: Back Alley Sound

album: I Wanted to Be


I disappear for days on end and blend into the scenery
To wrap my head around what you said and what that means to me
Forever on the verge of words like those spoken by deities
I'm the devil in the details as well as the grand scheme of things
And recently my reasoning need not concern you
She wishing my ambition came with a curfew, it don't
Lotta evenings and issues I gotta work through
I got mixed up and all twisted trying to find somewhere to turn to
But I live to see them disproven
The nights I hate myself are nights I write better music
That's some useful confusion, that's the fruits of my delusion
That's enough to make me feel this dumb and go this stupid
Desperado, detrimental, that debonair untapped potential
Unparalleled, I fell from grace, that shit is not coincidental
Connect the dots, you collect your thoughts on vinyl
With your fingers crossed and stomach in knots for too long while
All you loved is lost, ain't no miracles for miles
But I would take that loss if I knew that it made y'all smile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Time is of the essence, but evanescent; clean my chest of resin
Seeking peace to rest in, counting sheep, our seconds set in stone
A run-on death sentence hot off the presses with a vengeance
Eventually I meant it when I said I let it go, but you never know
I better float to the island behind these eyelids, I'm a lifelong pirate
And my own pilot; my oh my kid, Midas might just keep you gold
Or keep you quiet; keep me high as giants and bias to defiance
Say your goodbyes it's time to ride in silence the whole way home
And I walk the line like I hitchhike, trying to make it to each midnight
Mind in mid-flight; maybe this cig might give me some aspirations or insight
Salvation's in sight - rolled in this spliff tight; I ignite despite what I said as a kid
They call that shit: life; do you know who you are?
Not a clue, but I banged my head with same motley crew
In a Mach Five joyride to the rendezvous between the great beyond and Bonnaroo
I've never seen the beaten path or heard the honest-to-God truth
I don't know why'd you even want to, but when I get it, I got you
Connect the dots, you collect your thoughts on vinyl
With your fingers crossed and stomach in knots for too long while
All you loved is lost, ain't no miracles for miles
But I would take that loss if I knew that it made y'all smile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
I'm stuck in my ways
Save me a grace
And don't you ever let the break of day go to waste
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
I'm stuck in my ways
Save me a grace
And don't you ever let the break of day go to waste
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
Oh I know
I'm stuck in my ways
Save me a grace
And don't you ever let the break of day go to waste
Oh I know
Hey
I'm stuck in my ways
Save me a grace
And don't you ever let the break of day go to waste
Oh I know
Hey
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
Trying to figure out what it's worth
Trying to figure out what it's worth
Trying to figure out what it's worth while it's worthwhile
