lyrics
I try not to listen to myself too much
cause sometimes i drown out my voice with my thoughts
then it happens i lose sense of self
and return to fallen position
I'm much more natural when I'm down
I've got this time to waste
and i might as well waste it well
cause i am always dealing with my mind
and this is the only way that i know how to get by
i was traveling north when the feeling of fall wouldn't subside and
i was up so high i could hear the weather rolling by
and the cotton ball clouds were soaking up the sky
till all the blue was gone and the sun was a lie
come one come all
im inviting the rebellion
and it's myself against thoughts
and they go on and on
now the leaves on the street have all been stripped clean
from the jet stream ripping past with steel and fiberglass
and they test me
who was i when i was who i want to be
is this me or is this me?
cause sometimes i drown out my voice with my thoughts
then it happens i lose sense of self
and return to fallen position
I'm much more natural when I'm down
I've got this time to waste
and i might as well waste it well
cause i am always dealing with my mind
and this is the only way that i know how to get by
i was traveling north when the feeling of fall wouldn't subside and
i was up so high i could hear the weather rolling by
and the cotton ball clouds were soaking up the sky
till all the blue was gone and the sun was a lie
come one come all
im inviting the rebellion
and it's myself against thoughts
and they go on and on
now the leaves on the street have all been stripped clean
from the jet stream ripping past with steel and fiberglass
and they test me
who was i when i was who i want to be
is this me or is this me?
