lyrics

It's the coloured in body
That with only a peak
Ignites the fire inside of me
I gave up looking for the unattainable
A lifetime feeling full
I sit at a very busy lunch table

I was past the peak
And something that you said
It stuck, it seeped
Roll around in my head
Daydream of sleep
Until I reach fatigue

Try to believe
That I hit the right track
And don't look back
Kick up dirt with my heels
And skip some meals
And be poised for attack

It's too late
But I hope and pray for a co-misery
Because in time,
I'm gonna drink myself into a nursery rhyme
My fate
No one ever said that we could all be great
But I've signed
Up for something that I still can't find

After mourning comes laughter
Fight back memories
Make room for new loves to please
In a structure
You hide yourself away
Alone get through the day
A cocoon has no longevity

I was past the peak
And something that you said
It stuck, it seeped
Roll around in my head
Daydream of sleep
Until I reach fatigue

Try to believe
That I hit the right track
And don't look back
Kick up dirt with my heels
And skip some meals
And be poised for attack
