As Far As I Can Tell
Where do i begin
everything just spins
on the axis
of what we call life
but none of it's real
it's been turned
into a lie
yet i pound the pavements
for who would i be
if i didn't try
doing what i can
just to get by
so i go on day to day
living this way
watching the world
strut it's freak parade
no i'm not scared
far from afraid
i need to be me
and not anyone else
for long ago
you put life on a shelf
chasing what you believe
your conception of wealth
and now there's nothing more
as far as i can tell
