Optimistic Song

bottled up in a fog and I'm lost again
asking why I ever let you in
a thousand faces making my head spin
running these races
I will never win
but I'm still lost, the world's on pause,
so don't make any sudden moves
in time it will be over soon
but i'm still tossed and at all costs
i'll get out of this place soon
I don't need you
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhhh (into oblivion)
and I'm still lost, but I'll keep my chin up
and fingers crossed, for an ounce of good luck
(I keep my head on straight, but the somersaults inside my brain
tell me no one can relate, but I know that that's not true)
[things are
starting
to look up
I think?]
Things are
Finally
Starting to look up,
to look up
I think
(and I'm still lost, but I'll keep my chin up
and fingers crossed, for an ounce of good luck)

Change

i am no friend of change for he is indifferent to me
he'll push me out of place, won't recognize my face,
and picks out all my idiosyncrasies
there is no end to change, for change is all I can see
traffic lights to satellites, and what's lost in between
I'm sorry I'm afraid, of expressing what I mean
juvenile fears keep them hidden underneath
and in the end, the only thing I can take to be,
change is indifferent to me
so nights I lay awake, in this inaudible scream
It's hard to get away when you're too tired to dream
recursiveness, I confess, has embedded my regime,
change is disinterested in me
