The Way It Is
Your words linger
Like a moment standing still in time
I'm stranded in between
What is felt and seen
Why do I feel like
The hourglass is empty each night
To justify the dread
I'll wait for the end
I know
The days feel dull
Everybody says it's so
But I've seen
The way they speak
The way they look at me
I know
It's my own fault lacking context
Seems like nothing new
But I swear I was changed
Every day is the same
But I won't let you into my head
Not like years before
Before I was one
And all the days they were young
Inside my head silence is never seen
Nothing is figured out
Cluttered by sentimental noise
I know
The days feel dull
Everybody says it's so
But I've seen
The way they speak
The way they look at me
I know
But it could be
Unlike the past
A joy that didn't last that long
It could be
Unlike the past
A joy that didn't last very long
Like a moment standing still in time
I'm stranded in between
What is felt and seen
Why do I feel like
The hourglass is empty each night
To justify the dread
I'll wait for the end
I know
The days feel dull
Everybody says it's so
But I've seen
The way they speak
The way they look at me
I know
It's my own fault lacking context
Seems like nothing new
But I swear I was changed
Every day is the same
But I won't let you into my head
Not like years before
Before I was one
And all the days they were young
Inside my head silence is never seen
Nothing is figured out
Cluttered by sentimental noise
I know
The days feel dull
Everybody says it's so
But I've seen
The way they speak
The way they look at me
I know
But it could be
Unlike the past
A joy that didn't last that long
It could be
Unlike the past
A joy that didn't last very long
