Distraction/Losing Sleep

I've slipped through the cracks and out of view
In the dust all I've acquired is moments of truth
It's only noise that fills my head
Am I more than my desires?
Than this shallow cup that keeps me occupied?
Oh my distractions repeat by design
Like an echo chamber hanging 'round my mind
In this claustrophobic comfort killing time
I'm bored to death and only 29

With tightened chest I'm in a sea
Drowning in these attitudes
With anxious curiosity
I'm losing sleep
I'm losing you

Forgive my sullen attitude
All the shit that you've been telling me has been killing the mood
I was half awake and happy there
I'd all that I required
My tunnel vision helped control the light
As conversations repeat by design
I'm bored to death and only 29

With tightened chest I'm in a sea
Drowning in these attitudes
With anxious curiosity
I'm losing sleep
I'm losing you
I'm a shallow man with shallow needs
Who fears the depths he's falling through

With anxious curiosity
I'm losing sleep
I'm losing you
