Feels like somethings coming
Feels like something new
Feels like a new day dawning
Feels like something good

pour out a glass for the also rans
for it is they who stand for the losers like me
can’t you see
first day of summer and I
can’t seem to fake my way through
first day of summer and I
can’t take much more
its like a dream I once had
that I forgot by morning
I always lose the thread and
can’t seem to get back
first day of summer and I’ve
already given up hope
first day of summer and I
cut myself off
I let the mystery be
its way to much pain for me
I bang my head against each
wall that I come to

Chorus:
You’re so small
You can’t see it all
You’re so small
You can’t take the fall
Earth so big
You can’t comprehend
Earth so big
You can’t see the end
Verse 1:
You say that you can see
far enough away
You think you’re big enough
To see all the way
Verse 2:
You think you’re high enough
You should see the curve
You climb the highest high
still you can’t observe
Bridge:
You’re wrong
So wrong
Wah Bridge:
Small
So Small
Quiet Section:
How can you
Look at the world
Through the eyes
of such backward minds

Bad dream
She’s a scream

there is the meadow, there is the tree
there is the river, nothing else there to see
one glass of cider, a shiny half crown
a lie is the truth and I’m the talk of the town
you lie like sam hyde, one lie for each truth
he’ll not be denied anything for his use
give me the money and a little bit more
I gave mostly truth when I came by your door

It never seems like enough
I’m Always two steps behind
and when things start to get rough
It feels like I’m going blind
A little forward
a little backward
a little out of control
Out of the middle
from every angle
how will the center ever hold
I cannot help it
I cannot stop it
I cannot fight my way through
It’s not a failure
It’s not defeatist
what else is there left to do
Nothing good can come of this
Nothing but a tragedy
nothing positive
nothing for the best
nothing good can come of this

Good morning sunshine
coming out to meet you
good morning day light
I was up before you, nice of you to show
Wrapped in the darkness
as I lay here waiting
smothering night time
as I lay here breathless, nice of you to show
Like any day
wasting away
Like any night
crippling fright
Be over soon
get through the gloom
when will it end
when will it end
Welcome the daylight
push away the darkness
welcome the morning
keep the fears away, time for you to go
Welcome the sunlight
coming to the rescue
welcome the day time
bringing me to safety, until the darkness comes

Hindsight (2020 Version)

If I only knew
What I put you through
I would make it easier on you
If I could ever say
Why it feels this way
I would know just what to do
If it could all have been true
I’d have had a clue
I would never have delayed

The Price (2020 Version)

It goes without saying
its all for the best
the price you are paying
is more than you guessed
Now is the time
to clean up the mess
it is a crime
to halt this progress
keep moving on
endlessly stall
keep it at bay
thinking so small
always delay
lets move on
what do you think about it
what do you say
I think we know
|

It’s always been the same
It’s always been that way
It’s never going to change
You’ll always feel the pain
It’ll never set you free
It’ll never let you be
You just wait you will see
You’re never getting free
Welcome to the routine
It’s got you now you see
The rest of your life belongs to me
