Opiate

I've been reading
Books about brains
Trying to see what I need to change
Can't live off no minimum wage
All my brothers going insane
Overdosed but never complained
Wish I knew that they felt the same
You do what you're told
Try to fit in the mold
But you never quite shift into place
Shit's getting old
Do you hold
Do you fold
Do you pick up and head somewhere safe

Hiking up some rougher terrain
We got off the path who's to blame
We were only acting our age
Can't put all your trust in one place
A bird would never clip its own wings
Falling turns to flying away

You do what you're told
Try to fit in the mold
You never quite shift into place
Shit's getting old
Do you hold
Do you fold
Do you pick up and head somewhere safe
You do what you're told
Try to fit in the mold
You never quite shift into place
Shit's getting old
Do you hold
Do you fold
Do you pick up and head somewhere safe

Don't know where to go
Don't know what to do
Don't know who I am
Don't have any proof
You stayed back in town
I just up and moved

You'd ask me to dance
I'd act aloof
I'd tell you my plans
You'd tell the truth
Now I have the chance
It should have been you
It should have been you
