This New Reality

Sanity is slipping away
Inside this new reality
From what I can see
No future in this world for me
Goal posts moving far
From the point they started on
Can't keep up the pace
We're lagging well behind
Locked up, lonely, hypnotized
If we understood freedom we'd be paralyzed
Build a house on sand and brace for the flood
Keep me entertained
Feed my simple brain
Or I might just really lose it
What's that it's just my sanity is slipping away
Inside this new reality
It's all I can see
No future in this world for me
I'd do anything to get back in the saddle and ride again
But it seems those days are gone
And I can't pretend
Keep me entertained
Feed my simple brain
Or I might just really lose it
What's that it's just my sanity is slipping away
If I keep looking back
Might give myself a heart attack
Better hit the bricks and keep my head down
What is the cost of this?
I'm trained but I shake my fist
It's just my sanity
It's slipping away
Inside this new reality
From what I can see
There's no future in this world for me

Same Place, Old View

Present in the moment now
Never there but always bound
I've said this much before
Look where it led
It's the same place, old view
Marching to a tired beat
Endlessly on loop
Relics fading
In a world of changes
This feeling of dread
Wish it was gone
If only we could forget
The good old days
And skip regret
Then we'd escape the past
And right the ship
Or we could just get over it
Relics fading
In a world of changes
This feeling of dread
Wish it was gone
Hop on this place
A direct to disdain
We'll jump without a chute
Into the blue
It's not enough
When they want your blood
Leave you dry
Not even high
That's low
We fall down hard
Just doing our part
Walk it off there's work to do let's go
There's much to be gained by going with the flow
Relics fading
In a world of changes
This feeling of dread
Wish it was gone

Now I'm Losing You
03:48
|

Lately I'm just looking back
Down the same old streets
That's not the way I want to be
Another broken sad sap
With a self-destructive streak
Is that the life that I should lead
That ain't the way I want to be
I used to have friends
I used to have a job
I used to have a band
And big plans that just dropped
One by one, away they flew
And now I'm losing you
Woe is me
It's the tragic truth
But I guess we're free
Is it just bad luck
Should we point the blame
I'll take the most it's all the same
If that's the way you want to be
I used to have friends
I used to have a job
I used to have a band
And big plans that just dropped
One by one, away they flew
And now I'm losing you
Woe is me
It's the tragic truth
But I guess we're free
Is this the price we pay
For having hopes and dreams?
It ain't free
Is it the path we take
Or all just predetermined fate?
First to fall it was the truth
And now I'm losing you
Woe is me
It's the tragic truth
But I guess we're free
Still I'm just looking back
Down those same old streets
That's not the way I want to be
Is that the life that I should lead?

Will I Be Alright

Sitting in this room all alone
Half of December is already gone
Will I be alright tonight?
I might...
These white walls make me feel dead
Cold and shaking all night in this bed
God help me tonight
Despite what has transpired
Will I survive to fight for my life?
Tranquilized and analyzed
Forced to face my self demise in tears
Keep asking what path led me here
But the answer is so crystal clear to me
It's like a torrent of flaws
Flooding my head while scratching with claws
Dragging me down
It don't make a sound as I drown
Begging for my broken home
I'll take the drugs I'm trembling from that's fair
Demoralized I'm not surprised
A prison but not as advertised I swear
I fight the urge to run away
And make things worse for freedom's sake
In this room all alone
Wondering how I got so low
Will I be alright tonight?
I might...
