I've built my life On unstable conditions A web, I always knew Would keep me Motionless
I know, I know I know the things I should But always feel the things I shouldn't
My life is beyond My wildest dreams My strongest control It's beyond my grasp
I'm always fine In that larger perspective Kind of fine My world is full of the weight Of all the happiness I know But can't seem to feel For myself
There is a fine line Between empathy And drowning I've never learned to swim
There's so much I've never learned Just felt
I started somewhere And I feel as if I've Circled back to nights Heavy in dreams Light in sleep
There's this moment When I'm driving deserted Desert highways I'm flying and alive And so very beaten Dust sticks To my wounds And every scratch Is illuminated
I'm painfully aware Of every fist I've ever raised Of every fist they've raised Guilt takes hold
Gravity does it's will Sinking coins To the bottom Of my wishing well
