Never to be
Everything to me
Always what I see
Always what I see
Locked away in dreams
Grasp at straws for things to say
That I don't even mean
Same as ever
When your life is a candle you say what you must
Midnight heat into daytime tarnish and rust
Feel the weight of the emptiness pushing down
You will grow to remember this fondly
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride
And I leave you behind like lost blood or broken teeth
Moving along
What's been going on
What's been going wrong
Nothing going on
Same as ever
Does it hurt when I tell you to change your mind
Do you know what it's like to be out of time
Just be sure to keep laughing and I'll be fine
You will grow to remember this fondly
("I'm trying" I say as I tell myself this is a temporary setback and soon I'll be
Better than ever and well on my way to a life where I have something real to wake up for
Chamomile tea leaves at three in the morning, they don't help me sleep but at least I can feel like I'm
Working to change these old patterns I've fallen into)
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride
Does it hurt when I tell you to change your mind
Do you know what it's like to be out of time
Just be sure to keep laughing and I'll be fine
You will grow to remember this fondly
Daydreams and aspartame lies
Say you'll be there by my side
And I know it may look like I'm running
But I'm just along for the ride
