Dodgeball

Got a couple night lights left
in the basement
ringing in my head
never ever getting
out of it

wondering if you're better off
letting everything end

Couldn't hit water if I fell out of a boat
in the ocean.
I'm afraid I'm never gonna find
my target

I'm a captive audience
forced to read cue cards to the screen
and pretend we
have a theme song
playing in my head

But oh my god am I just barely
scraping along
I'm crawling but
I'm caught up
in the web

Gotta couple best friends.
Just flesh with skeletons
We let our muscles rest
we're playing along
got the spines to take a rib out
and try to create something
and it buried us instead.

Too little too late and
now I'm finding myself in slow motion.

Couldn't hit water
if I fell out of a boat
in the ocean.
I'm turning the tide
Im closing my eyes
Because I think that I have seen enough.

Gotta dodge
duck
dip
dive and
dodge my way out of this
somehow
I've been humming
all the songs
over all the screams
anyhow

Gotta carry a tune until it becomes
you and me and we're all
We're all learning
We're all trying to experience something
I was the ghost in the room after all
Ain't that something?
