lyrics

Heading the same way as before, still clearing space…
It’s not the same game anymore; I can read it off your face

Why cant we all just look at what’s indelible
From ashes to ashes is what’s incredible
Run hot don’t elevate it till its credible
Its not what I’m used to saying

Ive been running around but I feel no pain, for anything anymore
Just to cause us to try to explain, what’s all and what ever is
Cryin alone you gotta show restraint, that’s something ill never know
I feel young but I’m afraid to die

Grating away at the unchangeable, just another wasted day
Hope lies in duties waiting call, you better pull your weight

Running through a tangled mess in mexico
And I’m asking why the show isn’t in stereo
While acid helps alleviate the visible
It’s time you met your craving

Ive been running around but I feel no pain, for anything anymore
Just to cause us to try to explain, what’s all and what ever is
Cryin alone you gotta show restraint, that’s something ill never know
I feel young but I’m afraid to die
