Contradicting Thoughts

its all been said before better than I’ve said it

so just forget it I meant what I said and

Im tired of feeling so distant from everyone

and pretending that Im coherent

 

So tell me a story of ignorant bliss

before I was cursed with giving a ****

no time to regret old actions and ways

Tell yourself that your changing but U’ll never change

 

Its grimy and gritty and ****** and ******

But at least we got music each other and such

and if I get too ****** up don’t assume that I’m drunk

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it

 

Why cant I go away

to an imaginary place thats locked in my dreams

So close but so out of reach

If I wanted to I could just be there in an instant

and fly, fly so high

till I realize that I cant get away

if i hide, I wont hide, I cant hide

 

Its grimy and gritty and ****** and ******

But at least we got music each other and such

and if I get too ****** up don’t assume that I’m drunk

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it

Because it takes too long to feel it
