Splinters through fingers trapped under the crawl space

Think I see things clearer while you look down on me

These floorboards are talking 'bout

Every step that I've mapped out

But what steps to take?

This route is uncertain

The light from the floorboards

Is clouded by burdens

What sounds did I make

From under the surface?

Did it reach you at all?

Did you choose to ignore it?

Drowned me out with cartoons

We'd watch when I was feeling blue

Reruns, old tapes, I swear nothing's new

2-D heartbreak

Got no depth 'cause

It's all falling flat

I feel stuck in our static

Said it's all fun and games

They're the only ones laughing

Could you tell me the joke?

Now I probably could use it

I got secondhand smoke

From all the drugs you're abusing

Must've lost the remote

At least this channel's amusing

Oh, could you give me more?

So uncertain

I'm still hurting

With one foot in the door

Another second

I should cut my eyes out

I don't watch you as you're parting from me

These splinters through fingers trapped under the crawl space

Think I see things clearer while you look down on me

The light from the floorboards is dimming out

There's no one left talking

Just TV sound
