lyrics

Thought I held the future in my hands
When I read between the lines
They told another story
Of a fortune that I did not recognize

Corners of my room hold your memory
In small unsightly piles
Set aside and out of mind
Avoidance makes the heart grow so unkind

Two birds down, up a heart of stone
Two years older, not a thing to show
Each day returns a paler hue of ochre

Thought I could rely on sedation
Stoned and satisfied
Kaleidoscopic vices
In the psychedelic art of getting by

Everyone I know is in a daydream
In a haze
They wander around with their once high-held heads down
On weighty shoulders

Two birds down, up a heart of stone
Two years older, not a thing to show
Each day returns a paler hue of ochre
