Tunneler
Are all the choices I make or have made
A lens that was shaped while I was
Standing just out of frame
(out of focus again)
It's one and the same
A feeling I can't shake
Separated by the time it takes to
Plot out a proper escape
Resigned to my fate
And burned at the stake
Are we who we are
Because or in spite of
Everyone we love?
'Cuz I'm wondering
Where is the line between
What's mine and predefined
Any excuse left to sell --
Look what we built
I keep caving in on myself
There's no parables to prepare for
The wrestling doubt instilled
By the bonds we share
Is this a smash-and-grab
Or did I leave any goods on the shelf?
Did you orchestrate the whole damn thing?
I read the instructions
The blueprints create the illusion
There's blame to share
And I don't fit in anywhere
All these spare pieces in the box -
It's troubling
Are we who we are
Because or in spite of
Everyone we love?
'Cuz I'm wondering
Where is the line between
What's mine and predefined
Any excuse left to sell --
Look what we built
I keep caving in on myself
Sit back and watch it burn
Or get trampled on
Waiting your turn
Every crack in the foundation wall
Set me back on this path
And I can't avoid all the hazards
By knowing what happens in the end
I keep caving in
A lens that was shaped while I was
Standing just out of frame
(out of focus again)
It's one and the same
A feeling I can't shake
Separated by the time it takes to
Plot out a proper escape
Resigned to my fate
And burned at the stake
Are we who we are
Because or in spite of
Everyone we love?
'Cuz I'm wondering
Where is the line between
What's mine and predefined
Any excuse left to sell --
Look what we built
I keep caving in on myself
There's no parables to prepare for
The wrestling doubt instilled
By the bonds we share
Is this a smash-and-grab
Or did I leave any goods on the shelf?
Did you orchestrate the whole damn thing?
I read the instructions
The blueprints create the illusion
There's blame to share
And I don't fit in anywhere
All these spare pieces in the box -
It's troubling
Are we who we are
Because or in spite of
Everyone we love?
'Cuz I'm wondering
Where is the line between
What's mine and predefined
Any excuse left to sell --
Look what we built
I keep caving in on myself
Sit back and watch it burn
Or get trampled on
Waiting your turn
Every crack in the foundation wall
Set me back on this path
And I can't avoid all the hazards
By knowing what happens in the end
I keep caving in
