lyrics

Every situation ain’t got just one perspective
each party with there own objectives, subjective in their reflective ponderings
Pandering, ‘cuz we all need someone to blame,
That's the name of the game, it's just the same old refrain.
Plain as night, right as rain
The thing that's right, insights disdain
Fade to white, fight the pain
You maybe right, but you derranged
You take delight, in strikin' in pain?
So much much delight, we can't contain
Just try to maintain civility
Hope some humanity remains.



When I think back to before there was an us,
Never used to have to worry about who I could trust
Never used to have to worry about when I could lust
Never had to worry about how not to get cussed out
we just sittin' on the couch,
but now I gotta deal with your screams and your shouts
Layin' into me, gettin' personal, too.
Gotta guard my heart somehow what you want me to do?
Brick by brick you erected this wall
Steel struts, concrete foundation and all
You made sure penetration could never occur
Except from the place where you were
Now I'm workin' on a plan of my own
Sealing up the remaining gaps in this stone
X's on the windows, tape on the cracks
Securing my homeland from the threat of attack



And this is how it goes
Round and round again, and where it stops nobody knows
But I suppose, it ain't just chance when I repeat scenarios
But I don't even fucking remember choosing the decision that I chose.
Tell yourself you'll admit when you're wrong, but you never do
Pride keeps you to mere confession, you think it's clever dude?
Tell yourself and her that you'll leave, relation severed through
But you know that you'll do whatever it takes to weather through
So be real with yourself, what's the end you have in mind?
Have even thought this through or is it as yet undefined?
Got no reason at all, but you still gotta be Mr. Tough,
It ain't even servin' a purpose--aren't things already rough enough?
So relax, sit back and take an inventory
Make a mental memo of the minutiaed millions more momentous than your glory
Achieve an accurate perspective, then go humbly to your wife
And tell her you're fucking sorry, and that you love her more than life
