We've been here before And its never been "amazing" A word reserved for new beginnings Not the same old same things So familiar and worn That its browning and aging As if left out on the lawn Because its not worth saving
To afford "amazing" would be amazing But amazing is not a necessity Other needs are more pressing So it fades from our vocabulary To make room for whats usable Like things that aren't accessories And like the boxes in the garage It fades from our memories
