Lyrics

Desperately grasping at the meaning of life From someone who is truly afraid to live Burying themselves beneath a mountain of pills Just to let reality drift Into a distant thought Maybe I'm just a fool Who's dissecting your words To mean what I want them to Holding on To every syllable Like everything you said meant something more Slow slurs echo through my mind Reminding me Of how oblivious you can be When you only see What you want to Desperately grasping at the meaning of life From someone who is truly afraid to live Burying themselves beneath a mountain of pills Just to let reality drift Into a distant thought I figured it out for myself though I let the forest consume me And took what I could from the branches and bark To try and make myself more than who I was when I went in You've always feared the trees Running as far away as you could Fighting the whole time to keep from being enveloped by the burden of life Life catches up though Forcing confrontation with your past Your future Your everything Desperately grasping at the meaning of life From someone who is truly afraid to live Burying themselves beneath a mountain of pills Just to let reality drift Into a distant thought You always gave that snake oil-selling grin Trying to push it more than the substances That keep your spine aligned That keep your spine aligned
