I live in a house/it's close to town
But I haven't gone outside today
Got the TV on with the volume down
Can't understand what anyone is saying
And I'm here, pacing
Feel my mind erasing
The way it used to be
Feels like I'm on hold I just do what I'm told gotta find another way to have a life and seize the day
Life seems out of reach when it takes so much just to exist anymore
Melt in line /an emergency
I wonder when they'll get to me
Am I standing out with my camoflague?
Is it time to get the hell out of Dodge?
And I'm here, waiting
It's debilitating
I think I'll check the news
Feels like I'm on hold this is getting so old gotta find another way to have a life and seize the day
Life seems out of reach when it takes so much just to exist anymore
Is everyone all hanging out?
That's the thing I'm sensitive about!
Every day I wake up with my compass in my hand
I'll be down below, let me know when we see land
The whole world is a bust but I know that I'm much more than shoulders and a head, yeah today I made the bed
I may be standing still but maybe that means I'm back on my feet again
The whole world is a bust but I know that I'm much more than shoulders and a head, yeah today I made the bed
I may be standing still buy maybe that means I'm back on my feet again

Walkin home across the river
I saw her from the bridge
There was somebody callin for her
But she didn't move an inch
You told me that this wasn't the first time
How do you still not know
This is what's gonna happen when you let her go
I tried my best to woo her
Tried so hard to make her stay
Just when I thought we'd gotten closer
She'd smile and run the other way
You told me that this isn't the first time
Then how do you still not know
This is just what's gonna happen when you let her go
I still see her in a sunbeam
Dancing barefoot in the grass
Locks of yellow flowing downstream
Hear the music of her laugh
Even though this isn't the first time
How do I still not know
This is just what's gonna happen when I let her go
