There's an inertia that decisions have to keep you on the beaten path
No matter what you wanna do
But folks like us we never know when to hold on and when to let go
Or when the problem lies with you
I wanna do something desperate but I don't know how
Is the world unkind enough that we outgrow the things we love
And tolerate mundane instead
Do we acquiesce to age and build a more comfortable cage
Or run in circles til we're dead
I wanna do something desperate but I don't know how
I have no breath to scream
I'm not feeling rage, there is no machine
There is no strength in me
There is only injury and apathy
Exhausting our remaining will, we work so hard to climb the hill
We find there's nothing at the top
Victims of this restlessness, we wonder at the precipice
I'll meet you there, you'll push me off
I wanna do something desperate but I don't know how
