Tuned Out

Weightless and thinning
Long past beginning
Turning about to find the missing link
All things have an ending
All things condescending
The colossal wreck still stands, but in pieces

Losing the gall to want it all

I dove headfirst into the sea expecting hospitality
But to my surprise, no one was around
In the caves of a reef, I found nothing but good and grief
And the weight from above pushed me down

Deformed and ugly
Well made and lovely
Two halves make a whole, but not much else
Fool me once, shame on me
Fool me twice, shame on me
Collisions and decisions and free reign

Losing the grace to save my own face

It was not 'til I reached the shore that I saw that I could sail no more
I could not return, my ship had run aground
So I walked on, face in the wind, and remembered what I could not rescind
And tuned my ears to hear nothing's sound

Would you only see me if there was nothing else to see?
Guess I'll just let it be

I dove headfirst into the sea expecting hospitality
But to my surprise, no one was around
In the caves of a reef, I found nothing but good and grief
And the weight from above pushed me down
And the weight from above keeps pushing down
