about

A song about feeling disillusioned and as if you have to ignore all the shit sandwiches around you to live contentedly

lyrics

Are we cool now?
Think I'm coming around
Wouldn't say proud, but I'm here in one piece anyhow

I've tapped out
Been screaming so loud
I'll calm down, won't be a problem anyhow

Are we cooling down?
In the midst of a drought
When I've found, the only way out is the clouds

Are we screwed now
Am I just freaking out
I'll back down, try to dissipate into the crowd

Like the back of my hand, but I've gotten so careless I forget what it's like
Taking a stand, but get to embarrassed to really put up a fight

Are we tuned out?
To uncomfortable sounds
All holed out, but the sound of screams is getting loud

And I've lost count
Of heads stuck in the ground
I'm stuck around, a quiet and complicit crowd

Like the back of my hand, but I've gotten so careless I forget what it's like
Taking a stand, but get to embarrassed to really put up a fight

I don't think I have the heart think we've been doomed from the start
Relying on some broken parts to hold it up enough
But I've been trying to say something is not in it's place
And trying to fight through the days is really getting tough
So I've been turning away from even half of the pace
But getting harder to hold even a simple bluff
So I've got something to say and getting closer to caving
Trying not to complain but it just comes off the cuff

Like the back of my hand, but I've gotten so careless I forget what it's like
Taking a stand, but get to embarrassed to really put up a fight
Why are you screaming I've been practically honest that's the best I can do
How can you blame me when I still don't believe you saying the worst is through
