Bright Minds

There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough, enough is enough
Tryna keep the peace is like maintaining a buzz

There was a cloud that wouldn't break up
Blocking all the sunlight out and keeping it dark
I could never sit back, I could never relax
If you could cut the tension it would split in two halves

There was a calm that preceded the storm
I'm in the brace position and I'm raising alarms
It was never enough, enough is enough
I'm hanging in and aware as we've been causing a fuzz

There was a code that I couldn't break
It's getting more frustrating for me each passing day
I could never sit back, I could never relax
Imagine the elation when it's finally had

Bright minds think alike
The fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretense

There was a sum that was more than it's parts
We should have stuck together but we've crumbled apart
It was never enough, enough is enough
I'm standing in a ship that's been abandoned and lost

Out in the open, it sits in the room
Blowing in some trumpet and I'm still in the mood
I could never sit back, I could never relax
I've got to keep my eyes before that subtle attack

There was a hand that I couldn't shake
A black silhouette of a slithering snake
It was never enough, enough is enough
Tryna keep the peace is like maintaining a buzz

A dormant volcano rose
Shelter as it spews it's slug
Bright minds think alike
The fools smile and nod their heads
It's all pretense
I love her
