Bulldozer

Sitting alone while you lay down at home
Color pours out from the silent monochrome
Right next door but we're many worlds apart
Am I the missing piece or just a spare part
Help you however, I'll stay out the way
While we feel our way through this mental foreplay
Open my mouth but the words won't come out
Feelings are planted but living in drought
Myself in my way, the only thing ever
I beg for more from here to forever

Bring me in closer, my own bulldozer
Tear me down so I can build me back up
Practice makes perfect, soon you'll get it right
Gather my pieces in the dim search light

Ask for my help, that you know you'll receive
Momentary smiles grant a reprieve
Maybe I'm more than an oversized heart
Maybe I'm just here to play the wrong part
Still confused and stung by there in action
Something has to start the chain reaction
A mix of chemicals go down the hatch
They ever refuse to let me detach
Just need to find the place where I fit in
Before my future becomes unwritten

Bring me in closer, my own bulldozer
Tear me down so I can build me back up
Practice makes perfect, soon you'll get it right
Gather my pieces in the dim search light

In this sandbox with my same old blindfold
Rebuilding, always using the same mold
Long past time to reform myself by hand
Before I'm fully consumed by the quicksand
Being me hasn't yet worked out so well
Fragile and cracked like a breakfast eggshell
Who shall I be that won't be so breakable?
Anyone but me, someone unshakable
The choices are endless, there's nothing but time
Get out the shovel, it's almost show time

Bring me in closer, my own bulldozer
Tear me down so I can build me back up
Practice makes perfect, soon you'll get it right
Gather my pieces in the dim search light
