Taking Up Space

I guess I'm movin' like a freight train

Slow but pickin' up speed

A steady roll by the pedestrians and

They're all lookin' at me

And I can feel the metal grindin'

With inconsistencies

I never know if I am in the way

Or if they're all marveling

Or if I'm just takin' up space

Takin' up space, takin' up space

Maybe I should get out of the way

Get out of the way, get out of the way

I guess I'm feelin' like a burden

Or a brick wall of little bees

It's hard enough to imagine pushin' through

Without imaginin' the stings

I've never been too good with patience

Always feel weary waiting

(I always worry when you tell me not to worry about it)

But I guess they don't call it

The hardest part for nothing

What if I'm just takin' up space?

Takin' up space, takin' up space

Maybe I should get out of the way

Get out of the way, get out of the way

What if I'm just takin' up space?

Takin' up space, takin' up space

Maybe I should get out of the way

Get out of the way, get out of the way

And all along I thought I knew

But those old doubts keep pushin' through

To placate them and then pursue

A place to thrive and then undo

(Are we all just)

The pulling threads of woes we weave are

Tangled up intricately

(Takin' up space)

With the passive placement of feelings

That leaves us with no room to breathe

To breathe

What if I'm just takin' up space?

Takin' up space, takin' up space

Maybe I should get out of the way

Get out of the way, get out of the way

What if I'm just takin' up space?

Takin' up space, takin' up space

Maybe I should get out of the way

Get out of the way, get out of the way
