A scene that's so endemic of life that you've transpired As you're using your last cigarette to light a burnt out signal fire The sparks racing along the edge, friction coming to a head Entertain my thoughts as you remember that this is just a dream Each and every time it seems is captured in a frame Pressed down by the hands of time, and left to rot in flame Underlying uncertainty, left to my insanity Entertain my thoughts as I tell you that this is all a dream If I only had some wings I'd fly right the **** away If I had the strength to change I wouldn't change a single thing Island paradox To cut my own arms off Just to survive, a couple minutes more Slowly wondering How much I should sleep when countless options drift right past my door And I don't think this is something to change Deify the death defying lingering fate Something, leaning on the plans we make Before we see the high tide begin to abate Caught up in the rapids, I feel my life drain from me Pulled in to the raging sea by the current yet unseen Caught up in the maelstrom, each second of uncertanty Leaves me catching my breath, but between every breath Its all fun and games Then I try and simplify But all complacence Leads to every current in my life
