lyrics
You say you're looking for the deep end
You say you're looking for a best friend
You say you're looking for a way home
At least a truth that you can call your own
You say you want to fight for justice
But don't know why if it is just us
There's got to be some kind of perfect way
To make what we do align with what we say
I'm in the middle of the same fight
I built the middle with the first bite
If we build the middle oh so high
Then slowly the middle's gonna run us dry
And so I know that
It's the not the world I'm after
And no it's not abandonment
It's not the world I'm after
We're rearranging complication
Drowning in this condensation
I don't want surface manipulation
Love isn't part of some equation
But I'm in the middle of the same fight
I built the middle with the first bite
If we build the middle Oh so high
Then slowly the middle's gonna run us dry
And so I know that
It's not the world I'm after
And no it's not abandonment
It's not the world I'm after
I'm living in the times yet
It's not the world I'm after
I'm just as much a train-wreck
But it's not the world I'm after
Why don't you and I
Save a whole lot of trouble and time
And set all we see aside for a pair of unparalleled eyes
Watch as the darkness tries to hide behind a pile of decadent lies
What as the dead come back to life
And try it again
You say you're looking for a best friend
You say you're looking for a way home
At least a truth that you can call your own
You say you want to fight for justice
But don't know why if it is just us
There's got to be some kind of perfect way
To make what we do align with what we say
I'm in the middle of the same fight
I built the middle with the first bite
If we build the middle oh so high
Then slowly the middle's gonna run us dry
And so I know that
It's the not the world I'm after
And no it's not abandonment
It's not the world I'm after
We're rearranging complication
Drowning in this condensation
I don't want surface manipulation
Love isn't part of some equation
But I'm in the middle of the same fight
I built the middle with the first bite
If we build the middle Oh so high
Then slowly the middle's gonna run us dry
And so I know that
It's not the world I'm after
And no it's not abandonment
It's not the world I'm after
I'm living in the times yet
It's not the world I'm after
I'm just as much a train-wreck
But it's not the world I'm after
Why don't you and I
Save a whole lot of trouble and time
And set all we see aside for a pair of unparalleled eyes
Watch as the darkness tries to hide behind a pile of decadent lies
What as the dead come back to life
And try it again
