Desperate Measures

I'm tired, of all these desperate measures
All for the wrong cause
Inspired, to make it all seem better
Before too much time is lost
Need to find a way, keep it on a level plane
Don't know what to say, spit out what comes onto the brain

It's been oh, so long, since we all just spoke
I remember back when I was only listening
A little body caught, in a mind that got lost
And a mouth of words that felt like they were everything

I sing loud cause I can only make a sound
That reminds me of the time I wasn't listening
Well I can't sing well
But I can always make a sound that reminds me of

Being tired, and taking desperate measures
All for the wrong cause
Inspired, to make it all feel better
Before all my time is gone
Despite it, all and all, try to find a better way
When all you do is wait, nothing seems to come your way

Been staring into snow, driving, I can see the road
But I don't think that I remember ever getting here
Everybody sings of signs, or the tunnels, or the pike
But I don't think that I remember even getting there

Sing loud cause I can only make a sound
That reminds me of the time I wasn't listening
Well I can't sing well
But I can always make a sound that reminds me of

I loathe, to impose
Put me on a leash, want to lead you
No more, distractions
I can't believe in any way
Even though, I smile
I don't know where I can go now
Even though, so cold
Gonna find a way

I don't know where to go now, to be how I am
Don't want to leave it alone, it leaves me nothing
I don't know how to get there, to be who I feel
Don't want to wait, it's not fair, no, wait, it's not real
