Backseat

Starin' out the window of the back seat Silence in the air when you ask me- Questions, I can feel the world pass me by I'm getting closer, and closer, and closer (oh) Closer to the edge, oh don't tempt me I can feel the whole world against me now Tryin' make sense of the emptiness I think it over and over (and over) Amen, give me a minute I'm tryin' finish my business Tryin' handle this hit list Without leaving a witness Comin' out of you carrots is crucifying my character Seeking out these savages Cuttin' me like a scalabar Suckin' blood like a dracular Stuck in prison like Panama Chained to the mirror and the rings like my name's Liam Gallinger I done these rhymes for lifers If the line is in the sand, the crime don't define us It's timeless like beauty mixed with aquinas, c'mon Starin' out the window of the back seat Silence in the air when you ask me- Questions, I can feel the world pass me by I'm getting closer, and closer, and closer (oh) Closer to the edge, oh don't tempt me I can feel the whole world against me now Tryin' make sense of the emptiness I think it over and over and over Uh, man is a metaphor, blessed in divine flesh I find my rest upon the threshing floor Where wheat is beaten 'til the death's absorbed Where the man has flaws, the hero's born Just ask Achile, how he got his ankle torn I stretch my chest to let my head explore The greatest quest man can endure is from his mind into his heart That's why our greatest threat is to be self absorbed I must invest in something more I must spend less to bless the poor And that's my story in a stone Ah text, that lies a message born. I'm just a psalmist with a soul Paintin' pictures with his flaws Makin' weapons out of weakness so you can do the same with yours Tell my enemies come get me, I ain't afraid no more I seen too much already, I'm just starin' out in awe, singing Starin' out the window of the back seat Silence in the air when you ask me- Questions, I can feel the world pass me by I'm getting closer, and closer, and closer Closer to the edge, oh don't tempt me I can feel the whole world against me now Tryin' make sense of the emptiness- I think it over and over and over This is how I feel today, this is how I feel today (yeah, yeah) And it won't always be this way, It won't always be this way (yeah, uh) I just need a bit of time, I just need some peace of mind I know that it will be fine, but This is how I feel today, this is how I feel today Starin' out the window of the back seat (this Is how I feel today, this is how I feel today) Silence in the air when you ask me- Questions, I can feel the world pass me by (This is how I feel today, this is how I feel today) I'm getting closer, and closer, and closer (oh) Closer to the edge, Oh don't tempt me (I just need a bit Of time, I just need some peace of mind) I can feel the whole world against me Now (I know that I will be fine, but) Tryin' make sense of the emptiness (this is How I feel today, this is how I feel today) I think it over and over (and over) Starin' out the window of the back seat Silence in the air when you ask me- Questions, I can feel the world pass me by I'm getting closer, and closer, and closer Closer to the edge, oh don't tempt me I can feel the whole world against me now Tryin' make sense of the emptiness- I think it over and over and over
