What youre doing in the name of progress is what you do to yourself
yeah, there’s commitment, but do you really want this?
As far as I can tell, you’re faking.
your lips are moving because thats how it starts
And its also how they get you, cause it ends with your heart
It lays waste to your soul, baby thats when you know
When your hands go numb and wont stop shaking
Your body aches. Your mind is seizing up.
What a wonder it is in understanding that all I have are words
The funny part is I cant decide if trying to hide my sarcastic tone is worse
and i love the way he captivates me with melody and verse
To live your life inside the lines of poetry must hurt so bad
So heres the hook and it really pulls you in
And it sinks in your head and it takes all it can
For all it inspires, you lay still for awhile
its gentle loving embrace tells me
it wants you still, it wants you hurting
oh yeah?
if its so bad
why do you complicate the songs you make with lines of what you hurt
cause that just makes it worse
and in the end if its still too bad
Why dont you spend some time away from it?
the songs will write themselves
