Lyrics off the tippy top:

More at ease with the world than ever before
I just got off a dream, went on an ocean tour
Saw all the things that i hadnt seen ashore
It was the wave's bob and swing that had me rollin to the floor
Where i awoke to my life like, damn what a night
Despite my lack of steam start the daily routine
To work out a few things thats got me leaning off center
Girlie was a bender that i never should have entered
Blank will never be remembered, still it happened in December
Now im looking through the whitewash that covers up her fenders
Voice reverberates through some RCA cable
Highly unstable, been saying this for years
But not seeing it as clear cause my memories blur
Leave it up to me ego to establish some cure
Madness? Not sure
Sadness? No more
Present absence will lure future paths to open doors
Now im sleepin on the floor, girl is in the bed
Wave of enlightenment rushes overhead
One day im gonna catch it where i will not disrespect it
But until then life's hectic and my eyes are misdirected
Let me pause for a second
...
Ocean separated us but that doesnt matter
Cause you know i've been coping even though ive been getting sadder
Every night were apart makin me think i cant have her
But shes been circling this heart like the rings around Saturn
Cosmos glow due to the twinkle in her eye
But the city's so cold i wish i didnt have to lie
And every time i send a letter swear to god the mailbox sighs
Sealed with a kiss, my lips forever fly over the tides

My mind carries me into unknown worlds flickerd with familiar feelings
dealing with trials and tribulations of patience or virtue
i tend to stay hidden, the truth from beginning to end
i stay humble with pad and the pen
mission, save all of my friends
memories of them stay close to my sins

got a feeling inside so imma let it be free
have a problem with anxiety, i wanna be me
i dont take medicine, i dont charge no fee
but im in a deep depression, a calamity
my sanity seems to escape me a lot
so i (used to) self medicate with the ganja crop
go to my job, do my schoolwork
cause i dont wanna be nobody elses jerk
at times i flirt, but most times i gaze at horizons peeking over the top of my blank page
love spring mornings, enjoy rainy days
miss little league baseball, how did it get away
biking in the fall, matter fact year round
been hit twice too, they cant take me down
never frown, i like to smile its fun
its like the other persons face always seems so stunned
always on the run, what from? dont know
hate getting cold, and shedding any load
they say my voice is bold, that it belongs on the radio
and if they gave me the cash id go out, buy me a stereo
if i forgive you then i let it go, remember that always
dont drink forties, or frequent bars, its boring
but i will visit one of my bartender friends
and i have knocked a few back in the UK
and i wanna make an ornament stand out of clay
for my little nieces first birthday after shes born
yes, ive been warned that where im going is fatal
that nobody in the world determines their time-table
and i know its the truth, i just dont stress the fact
that one of these days ill be laying oh so flat
love life where im at, what more can i do?
wishing my mood would paint another color other than blue
see thats the issue, i cant explain it forreal
the deal is i love my life, but i feel what i feel


dreaming last night i saw the sky over a forests
lookin less like heavens doorstep than a funeral florist
caught empty without a chorus (is) no way to end up
so i take my time with life because i aint in a rush
