SIMPLE SONG going over in my head what seems like everything remembering commitments that nowadays just blend i don't know where i'm going and i don't think i care i had my taste wound up misplaced bounced off those troubles clear did i trip myself up again? did i see more than you did? decisions made without regard returning a regret i knew they could but thought they would come crashing with success they know nothing about me and i really doubt they care but that's alright cause by myself i do fine anywhere it seems like i shouldn't have pushed it hid myself and lost focus for a change shouldn't of made my self committed i got to know that one by now i'm better off without not impressed with who knows who and it never really matters if you win or lose passively reject let the rats race on stand sound until they are gone have you rejected what you learned? is your resistance all that they heard? burn that phrase and then burn it again ignore the emphasis on competition you protect you there's no one keeping score fight the past it's you that you ignored turn away what's become of us? has your persistence been ignored? been looking from outside i've been watching but i don't know what to say changed the old backdrop same face but not who it used to be trying to get out not out getting thinking, you're everything you said you wouldn't be time out, i see right through you're running around again i'm around and still confused in an instant can't quite relate and i don't know what to say all of the bonds i see that i'm not part of it's not how it used to be you're running around again i'm around and i've been cracking on the inside it gets worse each day and i don't know what to say keeping my distance but still i see it's not how it used to be pushing the time in a daze wondering how it got this way time out, i've gotta ask it am i on my own? truth numbed my feelings truth sometimes when i wake up i start to think this can't be true and i'm not together so i block out all the days that don't matter and i raise my head forget about what i did and try not to think too hard sometimes i get so happy i hear things in my head that were never said i just sit alone for a while and start talking to myself, i think it's getting a little out of hand try not to think too hard i hang on to the words thinking i blew it with nothing left to lose sometimes when i think about it it just doesn't seem fair still i stay prepared and i work my way around it i look deep into myself and think this is getting a little out of hand try not to think too hard i hang on to the words thinking i blew it with nothing left to lose i play my part it's not so hard i just stay out of view i tried to breathe but i wouldn't i think it's gonna catch up one day one more chance to understand to be a different way and i hope that it won't take long it's time to rotate in the right direction and reshape imperfection you smother me all i see around is changing making it tough to say i've twisted thoughts to words the ground i knew looks different from inside but the path out is far too wide to decide today but somewhere i'll find my place -try moving- i tried to leave but i couldn't i think i'll try it again some day and maybe i'll make it work i'll plan my route but not think it out drop out of sight and ease on out i'm gonna find my way and someday i'll make it work riot at monroe nowhere to roam forced into place down home bench life high class eyesore fall migration those who impress a community is community-less riot at monroe future curfew to main esteem one more arrest to show authority dignity lost misplaced by now screams to uphold those held down riot at monroe to defend or stay out it's not a question of who is right debate left no impact and still never solved the question of who to fight but what has talking done when actions go unplanned discussions changing nothing marching with feet tied centered on self falling behind when focusing on pride pride lies it screams so loud but it never says a thing but one's controlling the crowd sit and stare listen but please don't care well it's come undone looks like i'll have to fake it seems like i do it anyway admit to no control i thought with time i'd get better i am temporary although i said i wouldn't waste the time i went and did it anyway whether or not i said i'd saw it coming i set myself up again even split of words and actions that's not mine to depend stash the evidence so it will be forgotten i can't forget it anyway try to defuse but i've been trying that forever i am temporary i thought with time i'd get better yes i, yes i'm worried that they're lies yes i, yes i'm sorry that i tried but i lay it down too deep sometimes for too long up for a moment then that moment's gone and i pray that you know i'd bleed for a home i got worried but it won't be long so long i took it got me down but i took it stayed out stayed out too late for trust don't feel sorry i'm not worried image offset prize is neglect there one in the middle can we run this toll? what happens tomorrow can never be told spray can and a spyderco it never really hit until it was written in stone but we'll try to get by as soon as there's a chance to clear our eyes and we'll finally say goodbye inside with pride you survive remember it wasn't time wasted and we won't forget 4 a.m. friday awaken to a scream he's not gonna make it real it didn't seem no-don't let go no-make it through quickly formed and raised for keeping more contained you shut it, you lock it but you haven't solved it three strikes, petty crime out of sight, out of mind repossess, relocate there's more than one way so don't talk to me about all you're gonna do and who you represent and how you'll see it thru i'm not buying what you're selling you're selling you and it just doesn't seem right you've done nothing but caused harm and you want praise and i'm not gonna take it away i heard you got robbed last week did you know i got shot last night? its like dependency on game called hearsay you heard it said but did you hear it right so i was walking the bricks in my front yard they're uneven and cracked with age i made an attempt to arrange them perfectly but when i got done they wouldn't fit into place and i can say when i plan on giving up i'm trying to think don't know when it'll end i heard a rumor you went on a trip did you know i just got back? i had a chance to think while i was away i had pointed fingers of blame until they were pointing at me so i rode my temper until i heard the water but i hit a fence that was chained and barred i looked and tried to find another way in that's when i finally realized that i'd been trying too hard should of left that attitude back at home center of attention through tension begging for respect through the unsaid resorting to disruption when you hate something should of left that attitude back at home striving to dominate to feel safe showing your strength to the unknown you probably won't quit when you hurt someone what the hell are you fighting for? i hope its something you believe in 'cause someone got a fist in their face because you're feeling weak and your causing all these problems that nobody needs don't forget that you're all alone you've got no good reason it's just and attitude |
