Spinning like a carousel
Down into a wishing well
Another broken dream that fell and never landed
Could’ve maybe been someone
With a bit of direction
There’s so much s**t I tried to learn
But never mastered…
Anything
It always seemed
The secrets were a step away
Just out of reach
Cut to seven years ago
Always felt this way but now you’ve given me a reason to
Ignore the static
Looking down the family tree
Just a branch away from me
I watched it grow so gracefully
And never crack or…
Splinter off
That time is lost
But plenty left to break away
Just out of reach
Sadly that’s including me
Go and live your wildest dream
Be whoever you want to be
I won’t be there

Seen it All

Seen it all if you’ve seen it once
I don’t want to just pretend that this is good enough
We’ve been up before
And face down in debt
There’s so many things remembered that I’d rather just forget
Let’s assume we got nowhere to go
We just wandered off for all they know
Let’s consider what might happen when this all goes away
And we’re both left waiting
Simple repetition is a habit when it stays long enough to take control
Waiting for a reason to get up and walk away is just waiting after all
Let’s pretend that one of us is strong enough to leave
Any moment we could lose is a moment we could choose to be falling forward
Sounds a bit cliche but if it causes motion
I’ll say whatever gets us moving on
Seen it all if you’ve seen it once
I don’t want to just pretend that this is good enough
We’ve been here before and it’s time to go
If there’s something that we’re missing I don’t really want to know
I’m declaring this the final show
I’m inviting everyone I know
Let’s consider what might happen when this all goes away
And we’re all left waiting

Fooled Again

Tell that one again about how many people we let in
Because I’m in need of someone new to blame
For everything that went wrong in my life
Can’t ever seem to get anything right
I’m grabbing at the pieces as they fall and slowly disappear
I’ve given all my time
Stayed true to every word
I tried to stay the course
Got lost at every turn
So many wasted years
So many lessons learned
Just like the saying goes
Fool me you can’t get fooled again
Here we go again
I’m staring at the world from outside in
I wish that everyone could see this way
Just look how the horizon looks so flat
How can they be so poor and get so fat
They always just complain but not like me
My problems are all real
I’ve given all my time
Stayed true to every word
I tried to stay the course
Got lost at every turn
So many wasted years
So many lessons learned
Just like the saying goes
Fool me you can’t get fooled again

Isolated

Always had another place to go
Recently I haven’t been so sure
With that I could tell ‘em everything
But there’s a price for everything we learn
We’re isolated
Always waiting for a situation that will never come
Enchanted by the promise of a war
To keep us all from slowly going numb
There’s a time limit on everything
Nothing that we own is really ours
If we are what we pretend to be
Then why do we all feel so far apart
We’re isolated
Always waiting for a situation that will never come
Enchanted by the promise of a war
To keep us all from slowly going numb

You'll See Me Someday

You’re the result of everything I say
The payor of every debt I take
I’ll keep you well hidden and tell you you’re safe
It’s best to not make sound
You’ll say things that I don’t wanna hear
You’ll show me the things that I most fear
I’ll keep you at distance and tell you you’re near
The worst of both worlds
Early morning awakened by the sound
Every night I’m just trying to drown you out
Must be something I’ve done for you to talk to me that way
Meant to be a collaboration
You the target and me invisible
I will bury my head and hope we both will be alright
Can you get me through tonight?
I’m the vinegar that’ll heal your wounds
A reflection staring back at you
I’ll drown you in comfort and keep you confused
You’ll see me someday
Early morning awakened by the sound
Every night I’m just trying to drown you out
Must be something I’ve done for you to talk to me that way
Meant to be a collaboration
You the target and me invisible
I will bury my head and hope we both will be alright
Can you get me through tonight?
You’re the result of everything I say
The payor of every debt I take
I’ll keep you well hidden and tell you you’re safe
You’ll see me someday
Early morning awakened by the sound
Every night I’m just trying to drown you out
Must be something I’ve done for you to talk to me that way
Meant to be a collaboration
You the target and me invisible
I will bury my head and hope we both will be alright
Can you get me through tonight?

Too Soon for So Long

Both your eyes are opening
You’ll see me first of anything
Take a little time before you speak to me
I know the next thing you will say
Is from a place of honesty
Try to show a little bit of empathy
If what you want is a war
I’ll be the same annoying asshole that I was before
I know time is running short
Please take this closing argument for what it’s worth
What’s the price of better news?
Or some time to think things through?
Take all blame for myself and accept every bit of abuse
Too soon for so long
Out and far away again
Everything seems dissonant
With the added feeling of finality
I know you can’t believe I’d say something so absurd as the truth
Though you knew it anyway
What’s done and what’s gone
Is the definition of what it’s become
What was right?
What was wrong?
Never really mattered much to anyone
What’s the price of better news?
Or some time to think things through?
Take all blame for myself and accept every bit of abuse
Too soon for so long
