Fighting Gravity

Brandtson

8

I talk to you all the time the world thinks

I'm crazy as crazy is and I don't feel much different

fluorescent lights hum their incessant anthem

everything I believe and everything that holds me together at the seams seems so far away from here

and we're all wandering where're we going

and I wish my colors weren't so faded

I wish I didn't feel so cold

everyone's so slow and jaded

falling asleep to this midwestern drone

I think about running everyday away from this life

I've made built to last a little too long

feeling trapped under my own weight

too heavy now to stand let alone fly

and I'm always watching the sky

with jealous eyes wish

I'd finally fall apart

do something desperate to change things

changed my mind again just when I was getting brave

somewhere over this city high

above the red brick chimneys

I know we can escape this it feels like fighting gravity
