The Fine Line Of a Quiet Life

I would've thought by now I’d be overgrown

And at the station waiting, I should have known

Just how much life was inside of me

Cut down a branch of my family tree

You find it hard to see that the future’s bright

Cause you just sleep all day and stay up all night

Be safe, be brave, be whatever you like

Just don’t involve me cause

I don’t wanna do it again

I'm getting tired and old

I only wanted a friend

Someone to do as they’re told

I started falling apart

As I was ready to go

I see a glass half-full and you say you don’t

I know you say you will, but I know you won’t

Your teeth dug in and they won’t let go

You try your best but it just don’t show

And when the road is closed and you’re walking home

Could it be time to call it and just go home

To your fine line of a quiet life?

Acquired by knowing that

I don’t wanna do it again

I'm getting tired and old

I only wanted a friend

I’ll do whatever I'm told

I started falling apart

As I was ready to go

When everything beside you

Comes crashing down I’ll find you

And while I sleep I see you

And what it’s like to be you

Take care and don’t be fearful

There’s no undoing evil

It’s all a bunch of lies anyway

So why bother?

Why waste your time?
