lyrics
I woke up to the ocean
Tapping my head
Opened my eyes, there was no
White noise
The old voice was dead
So I felt around for something
Earthly and real,
But I found no comfort in
The insects, the leaflets
Which sold me nothing
Patience, this time,
It's all used up,
I'm old enough to die
I walked in circles, I was
Wide eyed, bored
This can't be hell, I thought,
I'd paid my taxes and
and I paid my time
But the roots beneath me
Lift like eyes to the stage
And it's the heavens
They all reach for
They don't know
How short they'll fall
Patience, this time,
It's all used up,
I'm old enough to die
My head's a twisted mess of
Broken images
Oh, for the life of me,
I can't say if I'm alive
We stop by the open sky and
We fall to pieces, wishing
For plastic passion, some distraction
Until the rising action
And I'm divided, undecided
We sit face to face hoping to hide
Broken models, empty bottles
Over the eyes, appealing
And we don't mind them synthesizing
Each of the old warm feelings
But I'm divided, undecided
We sit face to face
Hoping to hide
Just outdated, overstated
Bits of the good life passing,
The system crashing
Patience, this time,
It's all used up,
I'm old enough to die
My head's a twisted mess of
Broken images
Oh, for the life of me,
I can't say if I'm
A puppet trying to
Forget my heart's a hand,
Or if I'm alive
