lyrics

overactive amygdala no monoscopic awakening
shoulder frigid, exterior timid and facing total dejection
i fly by side strafing any challenging connection
wrecking balls hidden in the composition blessed
with the reason that I’m even being vexed in the first place
face pressed against the glass, stressed until it breaks
in the worst way possible
grazing like the rest of the cattle but
pulse is racing like its rocket fuel
over powered, over fed, and over medicated
quick to pocket false jewels
and I’m foolish cruising straight into the obstacles
knocking over problems not stopping but I got another bruise
it's a cyclical muse and I’m exhausted but I can't fall through

to the domain of that postmaster stork or pelican
innocence is foreign at this point, hindered development
apathetic creatures form choices
but not the elements they're made of
and yeah, I revel in my existence but
the game of death is becoming an elephant
and I’m afraid of letting it out of the cage
because we run from what we don't want
what we're afraid to confront
what happened to the positive
so underwhelmed
with what we're feeling compared to what we felt
the exact opposite of staying healthy

the drugs aren't harmless
and the riches aren't wealthy
you're running out of space
and the possessions aren't helping
