lyrics

The times that I went searching for the perfect thing to say
So blocked by doubt, no words got out
And the moment slipped away.

It never returned
I quietly burned.

And so I sat there silently, collapsing from the strain
With jokes that poked all who approached
And kept concealed the pain.

They never returned
They left me to burn.

Trying to walk a straight line while the room keeps spinning
This is the story that ends at the beginning.

I let the days unfold around me like a long slow yawn
And when the day I went to see, it was long, long gone.

Just a flatline, neither here nor there
Choosing the smoke instead of the air.

Not quite losing, man, well it ain't exactly winning
This is the story that ends at the beginning.

Life begins when we realize death always wins.

And now I only want to see everything I've missed
And everything that strives to find the strength just to exist
Oh but at the same time, moving forward to the sun
Knowing now that every single sun's a sinking one.

Every sun is a quickly sinking one.

The plot thickens while the hair keeps thinning
This is a story that ends at the beginning.

This story ends at the beginning.
This story ends.
