Just As Lost (For Words)

Sōmaphore


Forty something windows broken
Gasoline dreams in my mind
Hiding underneath the covers
Inspiration I can't find
Tomorrow morning when it leaves here
I'll convince myself I'm fine
Intoxicated panic grips me
Driven back with sober lies
I just want a soul to guide me
To hear my thoughts and soothe my fears
I don't want to leave here early
But I have a feeling that I will

I speak in symbols used by many
Cliched useless metaphors
Didn't think I'd convince any
One that I was something more
You just might be right to worry
But if you don't then I don't care
You'll just have to hope my duty
Is stronger than my worst despair
I just need to find connection
To something here that I can use
In my mind I should know better
But feeling fear is nothing new

I may seem alright but look deep
Underneath my spirit is broken
What once sown now is reaped
Underneath my spirit is broken

I may seem alright but look deep
Underneath my spirit is broken
What once sown now is reaped
Underneath my spirit is broken

I'll keep on seeking reason
'Til you learn to let me go
I'll stick around a while
'Cause it's all I know
It's all I know
