Old Man Luedecke - Inchworm lyrics

Inchworm There's a small incision made with deadliest precision That lets a darkness seep into my heart But I don't need sureness or crave a faulty pureness I only want a warning when it starts I'm an inchworm walking, mesuring and dropping The journey seemed much simpler at the start When I mesure every step, I never ever guess That every single step is all the same And misery forgets, there was ever happiness And happiness treats misery about the same I'm an inchworm walking, reaching up and stopping The journey seemed much simpler at the start And I took a road not taken, I was probably mistaken I've had a lover's quarrel with world And I'm not heroic, I cannot muster stoic But in my life I want a leading part I'm an inchworm walking, measuring and dropping The journey seemed much simpler at the start On every crowded highway, every silent byway Every victory soaked in salty tears If I stay a springtime green, it's through a thousand dirty falls I weep to see the wonder of it all I'm an inchworm walking, measuring and stopping The journey seemed much simpler at the start I'm an inchworm walking, reaching up and dropping The journey seemed much simpler at the start
