Inside Out

Let me first apologize
if i've been acting out of line
I haven't been myself
or anyone for quite a while
i haven't been myself
haven't been myself
i've got momentary guests
checking in and out my head
a hotel of foreign figures
all of them uninvited
i wear them on my sleeve
out for all to see
but I am letting the feeling pass
won't get hung up again
won't need no sympathy from my friends
no
no more caving in from doubt
no thoughts to overthink about
i'm telling you now i'm done being inside out
there's a fog that settles in
neon signs are flickering
and i just lay in bed
staring at the ceiling
i can't hear a thing
still my ears are ringing
then without a warning
something new is forming
like a tv talk show
with characters performing
i get on my feet
rinse and then repeat
but I am letting the feeling pass
won't get hung up again
won't need no sympathy from my friends
no
no more caving in from doubt
no thoughts to overthink about
i'm telling you now i'm done being upside down
turned around
inside out

Trippin on Yr Shadow
03:03
|

|
in the morning i see you pass me by
nothing but shadows walking by your side
i wait patiently
stuck in fantasy
where the light should change
and our paths should meet
alright
okay
lets go
I would like to follow you wherever you go
put me in your pocket and you'll never be alone
why's it such a mystery that i would want you next to me
i'm trippin on your shadow
street lights change for you
as you want them to
like some wind up toy
you just push on through
wont you please slow down
turn yourself around
take me with you as
you wander this town
alright
okay
lets go
I would like to follow you wherever you go
put me in your pocket and you'll never be alone
why's it such a mystery that i would want you next to me
i'm trippin on your shadow

I know just what you expect
spend the night it my bed
i guess that's all that goes on in my head
well that's just what you think
and who cares what you think?
come on, let's drink
i missed everything you said
this conversation is dead
and I know just what i will regret
but you're looking nice though
i can follow you eyes, oh
come on, let's go
and i am paralyzed
come on now, show time
and I am hypnotized
come on now, show time
lights out, slow down

She's Being Polite
03:42
|
|||
|
you left the door open
hoping she'd find her way back to you
the shroud is gone and she's got some idea of who you really are
it seems like every conversation you have sputters out
like static television
as you swim in indecision
yeah well
it wont make sense to you now
maybe when you're older
things you could have said out loud
thoughts you could have told her
but now she's gone
and you're alone
again
standing on the corner
wishing you were going somewhere
two in the morning and you need a place to stay
there's no response to your vague messages of helplessness
yeah she's just too polite to kindly ask you to please go away
it wont make sense to you now
maybe when you're older
things you could have said out loud
thoughts you could have told her
but now she's gone
and you're alone
again
it wont make sense to you now
maybe when you're older
things you could have said out loud
thoughts you could have told her
but now she's gone
and you're alone
again

people mix and match
take a little bit of this a bit of that
make up your mind
there is not enough time to take into consideration the judgements of your generation
so pick another card
maybe this one will be the magic one
to inspire your dreams
your thoughts and beliefs
with childlike creativity
the kind that only matters to you and me
cause I'd like to understand the innerworking of your mind
and find a way to just quit worrying

i knew someone who looks like you
a long long time ago
clear eyes and a true smile
it's been a while
where did you go?
tell us we'd like to know
can you get back?
sweet talking back hand alibi
we all know how hard you try
now you wont have a place to hide
no more disguise
where did you go?
tell us we'd like to know
can you get back?
but you wouldn't care
what others thought of you
if you really knew
how rarely they do
so smile and wave
but don't let it blind you
i know you're upset
but maybe a part of yourself
you just haven't met

Household
04:19

when i get out of this house
oh i will be my own
i will hold my leash
i will walk myself home
but as of right now
i am stuck in the shackles
i am too weak
to put up with the battle
yeah even outside
i run in the shadows
waiting to become the kind of my castle
do you know the feeling i'm describing?
to live under the thumbnail of a giant
oh i am no so foolish as to bite the hand on which i am reliant
i'll be compliant
i swear
oh my bags are heavy
but my luggage is light
soon i know i'll be ready
with a steady hand to fight
i'm taking myself to a dinner
yeah the last doggy-bowl supper tonight
in the morning when i wake up, tomorrow
i will release myself outside
but as of right now
i am stuck in the shackles
i am too weak
to put up with the battle
yeah even outside
i run in the shadows
waiting to become the kind of my castle
do you know the feeling i'm describing?
to live under the thumbnail of a giant
oh i am no so foolish as to bite the hand on which i am reliant
i'll be compliant
on but I can't take my eyes off the horizon
cause I will be the first one off this island
i will fight the giants i will conquer them like David did Goliath
and topple a tyrant
oh I'll break the silence
with barking an biting
i swear
when i get out of this house
when i get out of this house
when i get out of this house
when i get out of this house
