whats all this i'm pondering
if i feel the sunshine's warmth
but still feel cold as i emerge
staring at the dawn
even in the darkest hours i
will simply watch and wait for the world
to show its horns
what's all this i'm wondering
if i feel the sunshine's grasp
to push me to live life but
i won't answer its asks
cause even in the darkest hours i
will simply watch and wait for the world
to be reborn
what's all this im planning
if i have no way to tell
if the time i make will be enough
to help my memory quell
even in the brightest hours i
will become the world i sought
to destroy

sitting in the hall just waiting, waiting
for my mood to fall
it's pending, inevitable
the sounds and the pictures are overwhelming, so
the wind washes over me, drenching me in cold
curled up in a ball on the other side of town
waiting for all of the lights to calm down
the sounds and the pictures are overwhelming, so
the river washes over me, drenching me in cold
waiting til
it blows over still
waiting til
it blows over still
i can't
let me breathe
in my honesty, i hope for more to find
in my day to day, i hope to be more kind
but i can't help myself
but snapping once in a while
i don't feel like myself today

"as if the work you put in won't make sense to you, make sense to you
as if the time you took to be yourself don't make sense to you
does it make sense to you"
this body doesn't feel
these emotions are harder than steel
the cracks are beginning to form
and i fear that they won't heal
is this real
or is this just a part of a plan
a part in my hand
as if the palm of my hand
lays to rest on the side of my chest
"as if the work you put in won't make sense to you, make sense to you
as if the time you took to be yourself don't make sense to you
does it make sense to you"
i am me
but not today
i am me
can i contain
all the sorrow that will break
all the breakdowns that now quake
"definitely a man, yes i am
cut my hair short, don't shave yet
what's it like, to feel this way?
just how hard does this get?"
i'm not me
no not today
oh not ever
whats the shame
in the living that i've had
the living that i'll have
"as if the work you put in won't make sense to you, make sense to you
as if the time you took to be yourself don't make sense to you
does it make sense to you"
"as if the woman you want to be, makes sense to you
makes sense to you
as if the time you took to realize, that all this is true
you're so beautiful"

wake up
eat right
then leave
just waiting for something to change
like i've heard many times before
"you are what you think" is that so?
well i find myself, wallowing
waiting for something to change
drawing lines in the sand
with circles i tend to walk
fall over sleepy
and watch all the time moving
slowly, hoping, waiting
in circles i tend to walk
its deeper feeling
the circles i tend to walk
it's deeper, falling
in circles i tend to walk
same clothes, same sounds, same light
i feel like i'm losing my mind
stop saying the all same things
all the time; why are you still here
it's a mirror, weeping
waiting for something to change
it's a mirror, talking
waiting for something to change

and maybe i'm just chasing
the person i used to be
through solace i find purpose
in what i used to find bleak
oh, the honesty of living alone
will never cause the window to close
it's only a step of the mile
that we will soon walk

i have a habit of writing about someone else
when i'm writing about myself
and i try to find peace in the words that i scramble to find
but they're mine
cause maybe i don't need to write now
why do i force myself to be
cause maybe i don't need to fight now
i can just sit there and breathe
where do the words come from
i can't help myself
just write them down
without any reflection
i know nothing here that i'm saying makes sense
i don't need to write now (i don't need to, right now)
why do i force myself to be
cause baby i don't need to fight now (right now)
i can just sit there and breathe (won't you, please?)

what's all this i'm good for if i sit here all alone
when many of my friends stand by wishing i'd be home
what will i do when i am gone forevermore
then they will shed their tears and i will feel strong
i will finally feel strong
i don't know where i belong
but why do i break myself like this, even in writing
i still don't make sense, i still think i owe myself
something else, something more
i will find where i belong
maybe i'm here all along
