How did I find Myself
This way again
Singing a sad simple song
loving it like
it was my only friend
what am I even singing about
would it do any good to figure it out
I love the blue note
leave it at that
I love the blue note
It's okay let it be abstract
Take me out in the deep blue hour
I need to take a look at what I don't want to know
Gonna get a picture
something I can only capture in the shadows
What am I even singing about
Would it do any good if I spelled it all out?
chorus
I get stuck when the concrete
starts to set around my mind
get a feeling get to thinking
I can deal with it
Once it's been defined
Go looking for reasons
Seek and you shall find
but I think I'd better seek to be
In it but above it
because I don't want to deny
I do really love it...
Chorus

Every word that I say to you
May not be exactly true
but each one will hold some kind of meaning
Even if it's not exactly what I'm thinking
but it seems that now we're talking
I am not exactly breathing
Drowning in this
Stream of consciousness
Communication is the undertow
Pull me under
Or you can spit me up
Toss me against the rocks
Before you let me go
I think words are something I've got
And I can paint a pretty picture to show you my thoughts
but no mater what I say
I coulda said something else
Because you take it the way that you woulda meant it
If you had said it yourself
You think you got the gist of this?
I don't even know if I got my own
drift
in this
Stream of consciousness
Communication is the undertow
Pull me under
Or you can spit me up
Toss me against the rocks before you let me go
Won't you come swimming with me?
We all go swimming up stream (repeat)
but I'm just gonna float
badabadabadabadaaahhhhhh

Lyrics-
Think that you can measure the weight of the world
by how it fits between your ears
you understand it as well as it needs you to
It's all so perfectly clear
Your angle is objective on all that you've read
but you don't always follow
You're not easily lead
C'mon now, feed your head
with the echo
(Chorus)
The world that you experience
in only two dimensions
see your reflection
feel the feedback echo
The word that you experience
in only sights and sounds
hear it all around
feel the feedback echo
The world's got problems you know you can solve 'em
when you get a little confirmation
that's easy to do you just tune into what they're saying
on the same old station
but talk is cheap
with the high cost of living
and all you can afford is to hold your position
around and around round it goes
echoes
(Chorus)
The world that you experience
in only two dimensions
see your reflection
feel the feedback echo
The word that you experience
in only sights and sounds
hear it all around
feel the feedback echo

Lyrics -
Think about it quite a lot/ trying' to connect the dots/scatter like beads from a broken string/ I'm just trying to collect my thoughts/ Gonna track 'em down/gonna line 'em up straight/ get all the dimensions/volumes and weight/ gonna get the figures/write 'em down on a slate/ I think I got it/ but by then I'm too late... too late... too late
Well it takes a lot of practice to let things go/ just when I think that I'm free I've got to let go just a little bit more/ I wish I had the wisdom to just leave it be/ that is and it is not easy
I have got my reasons to determine/ and I don't need you to preach me no sermons/ I'm adding' up the omens that I see along the way/ I'm gonna find me the purpose and calculate/ scratchin' on the surface with equations in the sand/ tryin' to draw a better picture of the master plan/ then the moon rolls out/ the tide rolls in/ I'm rollin' all alone/ in the dark again... in the dark.. dark... dark
chorus
I keep losing' track of time/ looking' in between the rhymes/ try to sing 'em out/ but they don't make sense/ and if they do to you/ that's just a coincidence/ I'm gonna set this song on fire/ push it down a river on a pyre/ gonna burn it down/ gonna blow it away/ I'm gonna give it to the wind today..... I'm gonna give it away
