lyrics

we never really listened,
now look at where we are
void of answers we just float around
to scores of questions we never could keep
i try to play but it's too tekked out for me
i'm inferior

melancholic are the stages this emo ride presents me with
attempts to walk but where's that led me now?
weeping minds and streamful tears
flitting through the blues-filled sky
i coloured passed the lines once again

strive to sleep but then i creep, to consciously achieve
my equally pathetic way of life
undefined, rearranged
i may just get happy to that point
where i believe

a blissful feeling i'm yet to keep
as mine my own, it's unattained
i must say it's obviously by my choice
i tried my best not to rock the boat
i guess that wasn't good enough
i coloured passed the lines once again.
