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
