Who Ever Said

Drowning in their dissertations

Random speakers in my mind

Yeah, they never stop their fortifications

And blocking my precious time

You used to let it go and let it float away

You don't get to speak with twice as much to say

It's all in the delivery

I said the messenger who is now dead

Was all on the periphery

I didn't see him but I heard what he said

Aw, sideways talk, poisoning our thoughts

Everyone walks and it's no one's fault

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Home is where

The broken heart is

Home is where

Every scar is

Blinking stars, beneath you roam

Room to tomb and cradle to grave

All the answers will be found

In the mistakes that we have made

Oh, oh, oh

One bad ear and one eye blind

It takes a village but don't take mine

Living forwards in a backwards town

I feed 'em drinks just to watch 'em drown

Swallow my pencil and bleed out my pen

Surrender the wish we'll be together again

And I won't give up

I won't give up

On satisfaction, satisfaction

Gave up on satisfaction

Pull myself aside on a sleepless night

Sadness blurs, I'm in need of a light

Out of balance, balance, balance this time

I'm feeling fading, calling as I'm falling out of sight

As the silence gets louder my heart gets pounding

And ventricles pumping, working overtime

Our freedoms fraught with danger being circumscribed

A life cut short and circumcised

A rubble of commandments from the road, step aside

A rubble of commandments in the road, step aside

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Whoever said it's all been said

Gave up on satisfaction

Satisfaction
