Something has me all tied up in knots
the foliage consumes my thoughts
erase my past in perilous ways
and bring on the changing of the days
Something's different, I can tell for sure
Something bold and something pure
I feel my past is slipping away
Finally... A change of pace.
Everything is happening so fast
yesterday is in the past
and now today's a brand new day
so don't let it go to waste
Everything just seems to fall away
and rebuild itself from the clay
molded different in every way
bring on the new shapes of the day
Everyone has a new face today
some are colored, some are gray
they find a way to find a way
to just pretend that they're okay
Everyone just seems so false these days
faking feelings in endless ways
you wear this mask of happiness
the hollow emotions never rest
so erase my past in perilous ways
and bring on the changing of the days
