The Grass is Greener

You're not like the others
Born on the Atlantic coast
I'd like to get to know you better
So take a walk with me
Through the evergreens
Have you ever seen a mountain so high?
It's like they're scraping on the sky
Make a bed for me by the fireside
I've been wondering all of my life
Is the grass greener on the other side?
I'm sick of breathing smoke in the air
I'm sick of liars, sick of cheats
Sick that nobody cares
About anything at all
There’s a one-stop shop selling apathy
They’ll give you nothing
And they sure as hell won't give it for free
You couldn't take it if you tried
I don't know you
But I want to
Do you know me at all?
If you must go
Before I get there
I hope you travel well

Leaving

Is this the way that you want us to be?
Both broken and falling apart?
I'm gasping for air, I'm down on my knees
Begging for another start
We've wasted so much time together
Unraveling what lies underneath
I swore that I'd be with you always
Then choked on my hypocrisy
What does it take to make you see
I'll stomp my feet and clench my teeth
I just need some room to breathe
So for now I'll have to leave
Surrender my summer to autumn
We'll rebound from winter to spring
We both change our minds like the weather
let's see what tomorrow will bring

Exploding Brain Syndrome

The other day my eyes went out of focus
and there was a ringing in my ears
a flash of light inside me seemed to blind me with the fear
That everything I'd built was now collapsing
and I was evolving in reverse
The natural selection had left me stranded with its curse
If this is real, then I must accept it
All the energies run through my mind
I never asked for anything,
but certainly not for this
when you're gone, you're gone
when you're gone, you're gone
It's been a bit unsettling
to know the worst is yet to come
We’ll live before our brains explode tonight
It's been our responsibility
to take it as it comes
We’ll live before our brains explode tonight
When we all are faced with the implosion
the shadow that's collapsing our own world
can we close the gate thats flooding our lungs before we choke?
If we all fall victim to what we're lacking
We'll never get to see how much we have
It's clear to me illusion breeds confusion
We’ll make it last

Plans

Take me away form this place
I just can't call this home
I'm surrounded by the best of friends
yet I feel so alone
I miss all the time that I had
to listen and love
I'm afraid now I'll find what I missed
once I'm too far along
You can try to choose you're fate
But expect to deviate from the plan
Is this the price that I’ve paid for my education
Trapped in a cage reading books about the life you want
Someday you'll get out and have to fight for yourself for the first time
but by then you can handle it, cause your life's been in shambles before
