You can call me a stick in your eye if you must
But I found a silver lining to trust when I’m
Feeling sober to deathly proportions
I’m forced to take noticed with nothing to show
Can you believe your eyes when they’ve led you to places familiar, but never the answers?
Can you raise the base of the standards?
I don’t know the answers
I don’t know the answers
And I know it makes no sense
Life’s boring - or so I’m told
I’m calling home, no where to go, feeling older and older
Your plastic moan, my passive tone, it sounds so jaded when spoken
I know what you’re thinking and it makes me anxious
I’ll call it off
Repeating dread
I exit closer to no where over and over
Can you recall a time where you open your eyes, and you’re begging the wolf to take off his disguise?
And you’re crying and flailing and sinking upset
But can’t make the sense to get out of your head
I thought I’d find enlightenment at the top of a hill on ethereal quest
But when I lay to rest, I’m not calm and collected
I’m lacking the effort to care
And I know it makes no sense
Life’s boring - or so I’m told
I’m crawling home drunk and stoned, I can’t stop the movement to go there
I’ll let you know how it goes, I’m taking a chance and I’ll blow it
I’ll call it off
Repeating dread
I exit closer to no where over and over
