I would take over this world if I could
Just make it off of this couch.
I would become someone
As long as nothing good is on tv.
But the colors are so attractive,
And the noise distracting from thinking.
Wasted days turn into wasted years.
Mine is a life I've witnessed but haven't lived.
I have had such well intentioned dreams,
But time turns dreams into regrets.
I would hope for brighter futures
If I thought I had any control.
This is the end of reason.
From here on out I'm just guessing 'cause there's nothing left to lose.
There are no explanations.
You do what you can but you have to choose
To be alive. You have to choose a lie.
