All this time I’ve been thinking ’bout you
And I’m watching you rot but there’s nothing I can do
It’s not that strange
To build these little caves
But please get out of mine
I just don’t have the time to waste
But please get out of mine
I just don’t have the time to waste
Months slip by and we’re running in the same race
Not so bad but we’re running at the same pace
Not at all it’s hard to keep a straight face
But please don’t laugh at mine
I just don’t have the time to wait
Please don’t laugh at mine
I just don’t have the time to wait
This is hard
This is what I wanted
Kind of sort of maybe I feel fine
All this time I’ve been worried ’bout you
And I’m watching you rot but there’s something you can do
It’s not that strange
To build these little caves
But please get out of mine
I just don’t have the time to waste
But please get out of mine
I just don’t have the time to waste
But please don’t laugh at mine
I just don’t have the time to wait
Please don’t laugh at mine
I just don’t have the time to wait
There’s only so much time
And we’ve got bigger fish to fry
So if you feel alright
Don’t forget to please turn out the light

Grey (You Know)

Let’s take the time to show you that I’m
Not making progress
Feel watered down, floating around
Gripping my life vest so
Wasting the day with nothing to say
Keeping a straight face
Try to break through but all that I do
Is stare at a blank space
No fun at all after the fall
How can I fake it?
Gimme a line, sound like it’s mine
One that’ll make it so
You know, you know
This boredom’s getting old
You know, you know, woah-oh
You know, you know
No motivation shown
You know, you know, woah-oh
All that can, be my reality
Is dusty comic books
My one exercise: release rusted eyes
For second and third looks
I’m feeling estranged, I can’t feel the change
From daytime to night-time
The wall’s closing in, I’m getting too thin
But holding my grey sign so
You know, you know
This boredom’s getting old
You know, you know, woah-oh
You know, you know
No motivation shown
You know, you know, woah-oh
You know…
You know, you know
This boredom’s getting old
You know, you know, woah-oh
You know, you know
No motivation shown
You know, you know, woah-oh
You know, woah-oh

Far Behind This Game

So here we are again
Conflicting points of view
I think its love, you don’t know who I am
A dead philosophy
Was not, too long ago
You were the spark inside my circuitry
Why did you have to say no?
My memory won’t let go
It turns but it won’t budge, reporting dangerous
Why did you have to say no?
I wish it wasn’t so
You turned out differently
You’re nothing like the ‘You’ I had in mind
And though it’s weathering
Something subconsciously
Wants every drop of fantasy to stay
Why did you have to say no?
My memory won’t let go
It turns but it won’t budge, reporting dangerous
Why did you have to say no?
We could have been so good
How you misunderstood
All you’d left to do was learn my name
So far behind this game
far behind but now it’s done
no need to start when you’ve just won
I can’t continue, can’t advance
No second place, no second chance
But I remember how it was before
Inside my head before you locked that door
We could have been so good
How you misunderstood
All you’d left to do was learn my name
So far behind this game

That's Where You Belong

Maybe I’m the stupid one
Maybe I’m not
Shadowing doubt
Day in day out
All the love you said would stay
Has already gone
So how come I can’t let go?
Memories and photographs
Held in my hands
That look on your face
Put it away
Funny how two syllables
Just happen to be
The hardest of words: goodbye
Everything won’t go the way you plan it
After all this time I don’t know why
Still it hurts that you’re gone
And my heart’s so alone
‘Cause that’s where you belong
Misery’s become a friend
Loneliness too
Clocks on the wall
(They) don’t move at all
Who can blame a twist of fate
That brings to an end
You coming around again?
Everything won’t go the way you plan it
After all this time I don’t know why
Still it hurts that you’re gone
And my heart’s so alone
‘Cause that’s where you belong
That’s where you belong
Funny how two syllables
Just happen to be
The hardest of words: goodbye
Everything won’t go the way you plan it
After all this time I don’t know why
Still it hurts that you’re gone
And my heart’s so alone
‘Cause that’s where you belong
Maybe I’m the stupid one
Maybe I’m not

Well it started out so simply
Just wanted to keep time
But this pocket-sized disaster
Made me lose my fucking mind
I’m sure your latest gagdet’s bitchin’
And the 70s were wild
But your head’s too shiny, your memory’s goin’
And you treat me like a child
Maybe I’m too quick to judge him cuz
Women, we hate everyone cuz
But every time I hear that voice I can’t hold back
It’s you
It’s you
Said you could take the truth, you know
Oh-oh
It’s you
It’s you
So take the playschool set and go
Oh-oh
It’s time to go
