lyrics

Smiles are designed
To imply that everything's fine
The truth is misaligned
And everything is in decline
Long gone are the days
When I could think in a straight line
So take my life's design
And stick it where the sun don't shine

Sort pleasure from pain
As if the choice belonged to me
Not like it matters
By the time this day's complete
No save point, no rewind
Just space and time
I can ride the razor out of danger
If I'm so inclined

Nod my head and pretend like I can comprehend
Go with it now, just play along
My jaw falls open and despite what I intend
It all just comes out wrong

Dreams die
Between the hours of nine and five

The more I run
(Change lanes)
The more my world becomes undone
(Life drained)
Begin with much and end with none
(Nothing gained)
My efforts are a zero sum
(Chaos reigns)
It's pandemonium

Folks round here keep talkin'
'Bout the voices in their head
But I can't hear mine over the buzz
'Cos it sounds like a hundred thousand promises made
By some person that I was

Congrats
You've made it to the end
Now start that shit show all over again

The more I run
(Change lanes)
The more my world becomes undone
(Life drained)
Begin with much and end with none
(Nothing gained)
My efforts are a zero sum
(Chaos reigns)
It's pandemonium

Goddammit

The more I run
(Change lanes)
The more my world becomes undone
(Life drained)
Begin with much and end with none
(Insane)
Screw this noise, I'm fucking done
(Chaos reigns)
It's pandemonium

Had me a notion
And I set that thing in motion
But my precious thoughts got lost
Inside all the commotion
And my unfinished symphonies
Sink into the abyss
I still have no idea
Where the fuck I was going with this
