Tuning out of starlight
The innocent lifetime
Flickers and flashes
Onto a canvas
No nobody seems worth it
But the feeling's sophisticated
The view is so restrained
The past is nearing
Closer and closer I fear
So let's just cut the bullshit
And tell me who's independent
Thumbs twiddling
And your life's escaping your mind
Keep in mind
Well the air ain't as free
As it used to be
But that's quite alright
While you're still eighteen
It seems to be
And I'll tell you who's overrated
What's a beautiful person
With some hideous dreams
While the lining isn't silver
We're verging on the side of the road
That'll take us home
The edge of us is getting weighed
Read about your life
In your local papers
Realize the end of us is getting near
You're just a droplet of a paint trickled off your canvas
Delirious illusion flow back into the river of color
Where we analyze to try to see it clearer
Secretly appealing to a lonely prisoner
And now what's your vision
Initiate your shame and bring the universe together
In time it only gets a little easier
Suddenly piece yourself back together now
So what's your vision
And I don't want to have to give a damn about you or your inhibitions
After all you're the one who told me love
Was not for everybody
However
I'm starting to see this world in the right light yet it still gets darker
You see it's just a simple symphony or a painting whatever
It's a natural path expands infinitely
But my world is crumbling
I'll let it collapse into the abyss
In the midst of summer it won't exist
This emptiness it's just a blank slate
Waiting for a painter to interfere
It's quite complex but what do I know
