lyrics

Averaging accomplishments as I am forced to write,
Assigning weight to all the things that keep me up at night.
Self-induced indulgences are slowly taking shape
In the form of breathing creatures I myself helped to create.
Leveraging relationships and laughing till it hurts,
A self-prescribed elixir to help brush away the dirt.

Analyze the lines, you know they span from wrong right.
Eventually come to terms and know they're difficult to find.
Nothing matters more than just to fend of the desire,
exhausting you to honesty or something just as close.
Sometimes the most successful silence drowns out all the noise,
others leaving you with a disturbing lack of poise.

Why do I waste so much of my time
trying to define what's wrong or right.
How will I ever figure all this out
if I'm too distracted by someone else.
