Dig Me Out

Gray skies could follow me, but I let them roll right off my back
I'll find new ways to hide inside the new distractions in my life
I used to be so sick of how all I've wanted would never stay
Should I take fault since I'm the only thing that's staying in one place

I'd waste another night inside my room, I'm bottled up and boring
They say to me to take it in stride when it all comes without warning
I felt the storm build up inside and my ambitions are all wrong
I'll just keep saying nothing, like I've been doing all along

And now if I can figure out the best way to dig me out

I can't pay attention anymore to every single word I hear
There's far too many for me to steal and to apply to my own life
To make the pieces fit all right
Am I just taking bad advice from voices I've admired

I'd waste another night inside my room, I'm bottled up and boring
They say to me to take it in stride when it all comes without warning
I felt the storm build up inside and my ambitions are all wrong
I'll just keep saying nothing, like I've been doing all along

Every single book I've read is written by lonely singers that have
Surrendered all their time to be stuck in the same life every night
And that spoke so clearly to me, a life of monotony that
I thought gave me everything I need

And now if I can finally figure out
The best way to dig me out
To grab on to something stronger now
And move beyond all doubt

I'd waste another night inside my room, I'm bottled up and boring
They say to me to take it in stride when it all comes without warning
I felt the storm build up inside and my ambitions are all wrong
I'll just keep saying nothing, like I've been doing all along
