lyrics

chorus

I have to be something that I never had to be/ sacrificing my life to craft another masterpiece/ I can't believe that it's come this/ running with the wolves/ with the wool pulled over your eyes fighting the bulls/

you speak when spoken to/ there is no need to notice you/ I'm known to roam alone so there is no holding a home or crew/ only a chosen few/ I'm known to blow a shortened fuse/ never finding rest knowing that there is something more to do/ hope you have a point or clue/ I'm wasting precious oxygen/ it's obvious that you will never pay your rent with compliments/ my consciousness is nothing less than absurd/ with astral projections destined for dirt/ I'm bless with the words and cursed with the thought of it/ wonder if I'm waiting for death or the apocalypse/ question the monotonous/ intestinal fortitude/ regretfully monogamous/ got caught playing the field with one foot inside the sarcophagus/ the other in the coffin with nails right through the wrists/ questioning whether or not you exist/ so get popped in the ribs to talking with all the popular kids/ taught to resist and not get robbed for your kicks/ or lost in the mix/

chorus

It's those lost nights your out with your friends having some fun/ I'm locked tight up in the cut/ splitting a blunt getting it done/ nothing I chose/ it's obvious this is my road to go/ but the accomplishments keep fading/ and I keep growing old/ my role is slow/ but I play it like a prodigy/ so I'm about to go and make it mine like an apostrophe/ you couldn't possibly have been given what they offered/ I'm at the point where I feel like I deserve an apology/ for polishing off what was tainted to begin with/ a victim of circumstance and a lack of indecision/ my vision was in triplicate/ while living in the land of two dimensions/ and getting what I'm giving it could land you in detention/ avoid the lessons/ past the point of intervention/ redemption/ catch a blessing in disguise when your life improves/ lighting in your eyes when you find what you like to do/ so while I'm working on mine hopefully I can write to you/
