Jim Swim - A Thousand Ways Lyrics

I guess we got too comfortable
Saw the numbers
Decided we didn't wanna know
Went along with who preyed on our instincts
Let it roll over the edge
Hoped it might sink slow
Too sluggish to be radical
Let our nature corrupt and become unnatural
I admit I looked away when I did see
Saw it coming for some others hoped it'd miss me
Gotta get mine
Out of the way
Was my M.O
And we've blown it
And I know it
It was loaned we thought we owned it
Couldn't hold it
So we sold it
When it was yours
Now you can't grow it
It's broken
Wide open
In a thousand ways
Insulted
And I'm sorry
So sorry
In a thousand ways
So
When there's nowhere to move on
It isn't nuanced
I hope you dream of some things
We couldn't ruin
Dream of worlds better than what you grew on
So on the subtle there are roots for a new one
Hope our better selves are fairing well
Somewhere else in a universe running parallel
A story ends when there's nobody left there to tell
I wish our story told of how we learned before we fell
Gotta look up
Gotta look in
To make it home
And we've blown it
And I know it
It was loaned we thought we owned it
Couldn't hold it
So we sold it
When it was yours
Now you can't grow it
It's broken
Wide open
In a thousand ways
Insulted
And I'm sorry
So sorry
In a thousand ways
So
Let the record show
Everything undeniable
The pride before then the fall
And who was liable
It's quiet now
Listen
Leviathan is hissin' in the smoke
And the ash as it piles on
Used to just forget it
Close the app
And go tie one on
I'm sorry
I'll regret all the nothin' that I have done
Till I am gone
And we've blown it
And I know it
It was loaned we thought we owned it
Couldn't hold it
So we sold it
When it was yours
Now you can't grow it
It's broken
Wide open
In a thousand ways
Insulted
And I'm sorry
So sorry
In a thousand ways
So
