Kindling (Acoustic)

Fetal Position

Lyrics:

Welcome to your mind
Sometimes we like to rewind
Your mistakes and aches and breaks here
Are so clearly defined
Fear of your shadow?
Just make the sun another foe
That you can never ever sever, but
It’s better not to know

Your head runs in circles,
You wear yourself out
Is that what you wanna write your story about?
You place your faith in
A patron of doubt
Trapped inside confession booths, no truth will come out

Aren’t you worth something
Amidst all this wanting?
You’re wearing down the edges on old photographs
Once bitten, decisions
Now shy of derision
But if you want the answers then you still gotta ask

Get off rewind, consider play
You can’t watch if you burn a hole right through the tape
You paint flowers on your shackles and you call it a lei
Oh tell me why you hesitate 
The intermission’s not at the end of the play
It’s all coming to you live
From yesterday

Worse is when you find
Life was never so kind
It’s apocryphal, you walk a road
With thorns intertwined
Although it seemed so near
Your life has all but disappeared
It’s not the home you want to go to
But you just can’t stay here
Do I sound neurotic?
Why would you ask me?
My mirror’s getting cloudy, I can’t trust what I see
The truth is you’ve sunk to a lesser degree
Debased when you’re placed in the face of embrace you can’t guarantee
Hey!

Yearning, you’re earning
Diminished returnings
It's got you by the throat, so tell me:
Necktie or noose?
Enlist your prescription,
Sideline your convictions
You might not see tomorrow
So what life’s left to lose? (Shit!)

Get off rewind, consider play
Walking backwards, the setting sun in your face
If you wore a new reflection then you might be okay
The stakes are high, you’re running late
Gasping underneath your memories’ weight
When it’s coming to you live
From yesterday

You plead, you can’t proceed if you don’t know what’s in store
Last year’s heart ain’t gonna fit you anymore
Watch the way the winds of change erode the sands of time
Until you’re not quite sure if it’s your life or mine

(OH, ONE MORE TIME!)
It’s no surprise, that final day (Oh yeah!)
With all your undead words at the foot of your grave,
Buried with the memories that never were made
You’re still alive, as you remain
In all of the days you decided you won’t throw away
Some part of you survives…
In yesterday!
