lyrics

Rat Race

In the end
who will fall
who deceives
for a moment of acclaim
I’ve grown so weary
I wonder if it’s
time to dissipate
from the noise
All that I know is
I’ll never be
exactly like a mocking bird
All I see
is pretending and I’m tired of this godless game show

And I know
that my future was riding on a memory
that you’ve long forgotten
it’s true
that my disposition holds me back from you
for now I’ll softly exit into smiling sunsets
but I’ll still wait for your call

In the end
I will fall
further and further
until it’s time

The birds in the trees
whisper to me
I know it’s all a rat race
the fish in the sea
weep for me
what a wonderful time i’ve had
it’s such a beautiful day
i wish i could stay
and share it with you

All I know
is the walls are closing in the ice is getting thin
thirteen chimes
what a time
what an absolutely fucking nightmare of a ride
in due time
my explanations will begin to gain
a sense of meaning

what a beautiful night
