Give in and start missing out
Dreaming on an endless rout
Merely colors barely seen
Give up asking what about
Let freedom pull your gaze away
And stumble upon the way back
No care given to what they say
Fears are nothing near what's at play
Eerie whims of knowing gone
Dark delusions left alone
Never too far from the trough
Friendly face on any stone
Wasting no time waiting by
Closing the windows on before
New confused space to occupy
Taking control of every floor
Empty room where nothing left
No wonder for the mind's heft
Every word sounds about right
Any soul is up and F'd
Always a new wall to tear down
Knowing the end is further up
Fed off some constant tossing up
Give in and start missing, out.

Give in and start missing out
Dreaming on an endless rout
Merely colors barely seen
Give up asking what about
Let freedom pull your gaze away
And stumble upon the way back
No care given to what they say
Fears are nothing near what's at play
Eerie whims of knowing gone
Dark delusions left alone
Never too far from the trough
Friendly face on any stone
Wasting no time waiting by
Closing the windows on before
New confused space to occupy
Taking control of every floor
Empty room where nothing left
No wonder for the mind's heft
Every word sounds about right
Any soul is up and F'd
Always a new wall to tear down
Knowing the end is further up
Fed off some constant tossing up
Give in and start missing, out.
To find a way out you need to get completely lost
