Lyrics
caught in the shadows, my head is spinning, everything's moving around and around, and the people were betting, and the loser that's winning, is the one who has dibs on my face in the ground, and i know, "hey, suck it up girl", and i know, "it's perspective you lack", but my list is red starfish and blue lizards' tails, and i mark one thing off and five more come right back, well i like the concept of tight vacuum packed, let's shove fifty pounds of shit into a fifty pound bag, so that keeps me chasing my tail all around, and most of the time it's just me being wagged, and i know i'm at the brow of my being, and i know it's hard to look down, and i'm probably as free as i ever will be, still i choose to live like i'm gagging and bound, well i wonder what it's like to walk around weightless, to jump for your heart and never come down, to know the potential of true human will, without all of this gravity just dragging us down, and i know, one day we will wake up, and i know, and start to live as ourselves, and not let the cowards of history claim us, and stop pointing our fingers at everyone else
