Supposed To Be

I'm waiting for a word
To feel different than the others I've heard
I'm tired of my voice but I'm bound to it
These are my choices
It's endless this debate
The misapplied philosophy the shadows in the cave
The two dogs at my feet
And I decide which one will die who starves and who eats
The more I sit and stare the look the same to me
They offer up a bleeding question in their teeth
And I'm surprised when it's my voice that speaks

What am I supposed to be
What am I supposed to be now

And it's quiet and I'm alone
And indifferent to the things I can know
I've exhausted my interest
In the contradicting plates in me the struggling shift
An I'm sorry for the mess
To you for sure
Or even more myself most I guess

See the once the bells that rang throughout my hanger head
They caution me awake

We thought that you were dead
Go testify your fundamental need

What am I spooked to be
What am I supposed to be now

Pirouette the waltz across the tight
Well tie a dream that pulls that asked to colonize your mind
The life you want the life you likely need

What am I supposed to be
What am I supposed to be now
Now that I can see what I'm supposed to be now
