Searching for pictures in the tiles on the floor

While the day light slips by almost unnoticed

Minutes to hours spent doing less

Voluntary confinement heart beat at rest

All systems failing

Lost at sea not sailing

Only just getting by at best

I've long resisted the static I exist in

I should be calloused, instead I built this palace

Raise the bridge I'll spend the evening in

And out the window with more than I care to know

Do you need to feel ashamed of things you will only do again

When you know all the guilt will fade with a routine of denial and forgetfulness

All systems failing

Lost at sea not sailing

Only just getting by at best

I've long resisted the static I exist in

I should be calloused, instead I built this palace

Raise the bridge I'll spend the evening in

And out the window with more than I care to know

Do you need to feel ashamed of things you will only do again

When all the guilt will fade with a routine of denial and forgetfulness
