Long Sought Rest - "Negative Space"

the road less traveled is the only road
when you've got no home
you're just wandering
make a blood offering to my sadness
cos somehow i'm still standing
existence is a trespass
degraded, our bodies are passed out
like a pamphlet on 12 steps to recovery
my brain is worn out, it rots with insecurity
my words have no agency,
i have no fucking identity
i'm not okay, but it's okay
i just can't stay
i'm going somewhere
i don't know, it don't matter
but moving, to me, is the only thing that matters
would you pick up your phone
and tell me everything's gonna be all right
tell me that lie
the voices inside my head
yeah the voices inside my head
are telling me i should be dead
they're telling me i should be dead
well, i just try to tell them day after day after day
to wait till tomorrow
well, i'm just trying to get through another day, another 40 hours
sometimes the last resort's the only way of getting any power
oh, i'm not okay, but it's okay
i just can't stay
i'm going somewhere
i don't know, it don't matter
but moving, to me, is the only thing that matters
would you pick up your phone
and tell me everything's gonna be all right
tell me that lie
for too long, things have been the same
i've been in the same place too long to be sane
got a fear of missing out, i'm always thinking of checking out

and what will we do?
to make our way through this world,
carrying the bones we carry.
ill try to stay true
and ill try to stay free
and all the possibilities I see are coming down upon me
and as they make their way into my world I swear I hear a warning
"youll be sorry, if you don't take your own way
if you leave yourself behind."

and I hope that I don't fall down dead
and if I did do you think that
they would listen to the words that I have said
and if that's what I gotta do
ill just sing my song to you
and all our hopes and all our dreams
they will be washed right down the stream
if we don't take the time to sing
are you with me? I can see it in your eyes
don't wanna leave yourself behind
