About Me

Feelin' like I fell by the wayside
And I can't get back up
.
Turning 31 doesn't feel right
And I still think of
When I was too young to be jaded by anything
-
But those days are unfamiliar
.
Now it's all done and I've wasted 20 years
.
I should have chose' sleep over stayin' up
But I'm defenseless
.
I couldn't find peace in the darkness
So I numbed my senses
.

*

I've been living in the present
As a foreign land
, foreign land.
Blurred
, the days fly by,
Like road signs I can
't understand, understand.

Wait up
, I wanna take it all in.
I don
't see any future calling.
I
've lost a decade in a moment,
Washed out before I even noticed
.

Wake up
, you're not getting younger.
What
's time, but pressure in a number?
Locked down and being left to wonder
,
If these hours will come back to haunt me
.

The past pummels me like an avalanche
.
I can
't see, I can't breathe.
Time
's insidious disconnect eats away at me.
(Totally, yeah.)

Wait up
, I wanna take it all in.
I don
't see any future calling.
I
've lost a decade in a moment,
Washed out before I even noticed
.

Wake up
, you're not getting younger.
What
's time, but pressure in a number?
Locked down and being left to wonder
,
If these hours will come back to haunt me
.

Perhaps on another day
, I might find some other way
To keep the fear in every second at the door
.
How can I reconcile this world that I don
't recognize?
Nothing ever seems familiar anymore
.

Wait up
, I wanna take it all in.
I don
't see any future calling.
I
've lost a decade in a moment,
Washed out before I even noticed
.

Wake up
, you're not getting younger.
What
's time, but pressure in a number?
Locked down and no need to wonder
:
These hours are already haunting me
.
