Running low on the things we knowGetting hard to tell what’s left in my headNot necessarily feeling like I’m deadMore or less I think I just don’t knowThe longer this goes the more doubt I haveIf this is it then I’m doing pretty goodIf there’s more I probably shouldn’t knowLife…

As Sharks In Sheep’s Clothing…
Crack open my own head like an eggLet the air seep out and see what’s leftDid you ever notice? Does it even matter?That I don’t want to be here either?Given a choice… given the chance…I’m not so sure if I was even given the optionThat I wouldn’t just sit this…

I’m Sure I’ll Be Okay…

Without A Care In The World…
Fighting destiny, pushing against my skin and bonesNot sure who I’m meant to be, but not wanting itHurts just as much as no knowingThe sea was angry again today my friendTook more souls than it needed but who knowsIt’s not like life has a quota for these thingsWe don’t know……
