Darkness

Suddenly I find

I've got darkness on my mind

So the question mark that keeps me looking

And it's never satisfied

And it's never what I thought

Sayin' I'm happy when I'm not

No, I got a darkness on my mind

Leanin' out the frame

When it's particulate and gray

I'm perpendicular to my whole being

When I lean a certain way

Sayin' I'm happy when I'm not

Findin' roaches in the pot

No, I got a darkness on my mind

Some people spend their whole lives looking

For someone who could understand

While meanwhile a lilac blooming

Now sometimes on the driest land

And know it's been a long time comin'

And I'm angry and I know that's weak

And I'm longin' out that open window

For whatever it is I seek

Some people spend their whole lives lookin'

For someone who could understand

While meanwhile a lilac bloomin'

Now sometimes on the driest land

I know it's been a long time comin'

I'm angry and I know that's weak

So I'm trying not to be so bitter

I'm just lookin' at it honestly

Well, I know it's been a long time comin'

I'm angry and I know that's weak

And I'm longin' out that open window

For whatever it is I seek

Some people spend their whole lives lookin'

For someone who could understand

While meanwhile a lilac bloomin'

Now sometimes on the driest land, yeah
