Possibilities

Think of a way to get all the answers
If you leave it too late you might get more injured
Could it be that I’m right and my minds got it all in sight?
Thoughts running faster than I can write down
And my fears are so vague I can’t say them out loud
The possibilities are going insane
When I get a spark in my brain
Oh no, here I go
I light a fire I can’t burn anymore
Could it be that I’m right and my minds got it all in sight?
Could it be that I’m wrong and I’ve made it up all along?

Loose imitations help you get one step up
Craving appeasement from these people who look good
For some reason you think it will make everything fine
It’s overrated, all fake friends and good times
This isn’t you, this isn’t me
This isn’t who we want to be
Get it together, they won’t believe it
We’re losing out here
Get it together, they won’t believe it
And I don’t even care
Keep going, just fake it
Keep pretending, they will believe it
Hold your head up, keep a straight face
Just impress them, they will believe it
You sit sulking in your half-dredged apartment
Call them up and tell the boys that you loved it
For some reason you’re holding it all back inside
It’s overrated, fake friends and good times

I don’t know where to go
Will you speak my name?
Letting go wouldn’t hold
The others any pain
But I’d let myself slip away
Will I be the one to break?
Will I hold my ground and stay?
It’s too hard for me to say
Are they feeling the same way?
How does it feel causing me to steal
Hopes of another chasing you
I know this still doesn’t seal the deal
But I’m holding out for you
What have I gotten into?

Rot

Brush the dirt from your skull, it’s clouding your mind
Leave your state of ignorance and your old ways behind
Let it rot
Unfurling into something to be left in the ground
Dig into the warm earth with your fingertips
Reaching for something you’re daring to find
Let it rot
It’s all inside, I’m caught inside
It’s pulling me away, nothing I can say

You’re laughing, I’m crying, we’re falling apart
When my time comes you’ll be there at the start
A moment in my shoes is all that you need
To set yourself apart from the rest and agree
I’m a sleeper who can’t sleep
I’m a dreamer who can’t dream
I’m a river that runs free
And I’m dragging you down the stream
The battle of the weakest determines the strength
Of the hearts that are broken, too broken to mend
Your fingers are crossed as mine do the work
If we come back alive all we’ll get is a smirk
You call them evil but you hardly know
You’re basing your judgements on what you’ve been told
It’s all a lie, but how can you tell?
It’s end of the line and I bid you farewell
I’m a sleeper who can’t sleep
I’m a dreamer who can’t dream
I’m a river that runs free
Running free, running deep
And I’m dragging you downstream
(And you’re dragging me downstream)
Into dreams I can’t escape
I left it too late
And as my faith slips away I’ll prey
The affluent society contains itself
In blissful ignorance surrounded by wealth
Unaware of what’s fair and what’s not really fair
They act they care but they couldn’t care less
