Settled in the Unsettled (feat. Theo MacMillan)

I wouldn't bet my savings on a roll of the dice
I wouldn't build a house on top of a sheet of ice
So why do I try to get settled in the unsettled?

Every room, a shelf of books that I'll never read
Every closet, lined with clothes I don't even need
I'm just trying to get settled in the unsettled

Why do I do it
When I always knew it would fail me?

I'm ready to propose before we go on a date
I swear that I'll be fired after my first mistake
Oh, why do I try to get settled in the unsettled?

I dream up conversations that'll never take place
Get lost reliving memories that I cannot erase
Always trying to get settled in the unsettled

Why do I do it
When I always knew it would fail me?

Why do I do it
When I always knew it would fail me?

I can't use science to pretend that all can be known
Or heap up all my stuff, sit down, and call it a throne
So why do I try to get settled in the unsettled?
Why do we try to get settled in the unsettled?
