After This, I Give Up

The Sun's Distracted
Everything has gotten redacted.
The wind moves in tactics
And i have no chance of reacting.
The river's deceiving
It keeps moving back and forth always.
I guess we could blame it on the weather
But it's got a hard time deciding whether

We are all it needs or benign intrigue.
It's what rages the water the most.

The seasons near me
Can't begin to guess what they're thinking.
A puddle on Earth, bet they've seen better
around the earth they go forever.
And i want connection,
All i do is sing to the sunset.
But would you hear me at all this time?

Cos sometimes you are all i see
but the land proceeds to remind me that I'm all alone.

But if you believe the trees you'll know
Time can heal your soul
Lose your Brown Leaves
Turn them Green

There isn't an urge or need 
you can't send downstream.
Let the river float down where you know.

River

Does your Perspective ever show me melting down?
Running Headless without any regard for Direction?
Cos i can hear them coming back.
walking backwards, 
speaking in accents you can't connect with.
Only I can.
But I don't see you going nowhere.
I don't see You going nowhere.

You keep me open to suggestion,
But happy hour's quite the Lie.
I hope the server knows it's not the best idea
To serve me wine at this time of Night.

I don't know if you can see it,
But my Light's Gone.
And i don't know if you can feel it, 
but my eyes are nothing but distraught.
I don't know if you'll believe me, 
But i ran so hard, 
I ran so far away

But you know what they say

Intro to the Outroludes

I found a picture that says a lot about you.
Safe and Sound in me wallet for when im blue.
But you faded away in an Instant,
Life Snappin' it's fingers, like a villain.
I think i just witnessed the end of my Universe.

It's all to much.
The highway guides you.
And I've got reason to believe you're plotting to get us lost.
It's all the same.
And I'm to blame.
I wasn't planning to get by without you.

Everything all at the same time in front of you.
In through one ear, out the other, Without a Clue.
Never Trying to make a big entrance
Is a sure fire way to lose interest.
I think it's Blurred out all the scenery in my view.

I try too much,
But the action's absent.
I'm too exhausted, my eyes feel as Misty as Father John.
IT's all the same.
And i'm to Blame.
But I wasn't planning to get by without you.

Was it all that you asked for again?
Was the product as advertised again?
Cos you popped up in my Rearview,
And it was so hard to get through.
I lost my receipt, I can't return everything,
And now I'm stuck with all this instant dissatisfaction inside my head.
And i can't pretend.

I've said too much.
I don't Blame you,
if you feel like Cursing Me Out or Kicking me out the car.
It's all the same.
And i'm to Blame.
I wasn't planning to get by without you.

Planning to get by without you.

Instant Dissatisfaction

Seen you out there 
For the first time.
You were talking to my cousins and my Friends.
But I couldn’t 
Build myself up.
I lost my confidence and crawled back into bed.

Cos I see you.
I try to feel you.
But I can’t get past the long time that it’s been.
I don’t hear you.
And I don’t feel you.
But I hope you Come Back.

Strictly business 
Never pleasure.
It’s good to see you two are fine after the split.
But now I’m asking
The wrong questions
And got excited about the wrong things again.

What’s the Mantra?
Extravaganza?
No I don’t buy that, off of your stories and/or threads.
I don’t hear you.
I don’t feel you.
But I hope you Come Back.

What’s your secret? 
When you’re defeated? 
I want to get by,
And look how I did back then.
I don’t hear you.
And I don’t feel you.
But I hope you come back.


I hope you come back.

Comeback

Nobody Knows What I'm Talking About. Smooches.
