lyrics

In the synopsis of my life I'll put down that I tried to understand the losing not withstanding all the lies, and I hold my head up towards the ceiling I wanna care about my problems that are too foul to be breathing, and I can't understand the things that you are saying to me, no more grey beach smog that's covering the sea.
Take a seagull's approach to all these sorrows I've invented, and wait for death to reach my dimension.

There's no spot on earth for all this sunshine, it all equates to green grass and bovine.
Tell me all of the secrets of your happiness, a dead tree gone, another looking like a mess.
I'll drive a bulldozer through my own graveyard, and smash every headstone against every vanguard.
Let me tell you about the time I got cynical.
Too much knowledge raised up into a pinnacle now.

Stress it out.
No one tells you that life is just the road rage sky and the endless crush.
The wood of your skull stares me in the eyes.
I'll be damned if I ever need to pan wide.
"No more fighting," says the boxer with the boxing gloves.
"No more running," says the athlete who's had enough.
I stand up and I stare into epiphany.
One less road, one less strange ability now.

Ride the highway north right out of here.
Feed the one that feeds upon the fear.
Show myself to no one and be glad.
Hide away the suffering like that.
And that's just sad.
And that's a fact.
And that's too bad.
And that's just sad.
And that's so sad.
