Sifting through the words in my head
But none of them will fit
Wasting my life on this
Trying to extract a reason
Running out of reasons
It's the desert season
Maybe I should find something else to do
Maybe I should find something to move on to
Sifting through the things in my room but
None of them will work
Wasting my time at work
Running out of things to forget
Tried my best to forget
Maybe it's just for the best
Close your eyes, sing your prayers
Wish for something new
Close but not quite there it seems
Why think? It's just no use
Forward now into the void
We're closer to the truth
But way up close it hurts
Like pulling a tooth
They say nothing lasts forever
I've been here forever
Am I past my prime this time?
You're a fleeting moment
That's what you are
Wish for yourself
There are no shooting stars
Maybe I should find something else to do
Maybe I should find something to move on to
Listen close, now
It's the sound of saying something close
To something that lives on the
Tip of our tongue
Forward now to your bed
We've tried real hard today
But trying, you know, it hurts
And you're real hard to take
I swear to God, I have a plan
And I swear to God, it's a good one
I hope God doesn't get too angry
Because I just lied to everyone
