lyrics

I believe that I'm afflicted with anxiety
Of the self image variety
I'm paralyzed by fear of when I'll be replaced
Just an anomaly, neurotic and deranged
Old memories, an echo, I'm perfect and sane

When I can just pretend that the future's far away
And begin to sew the fabrics of a subtle symphony

It seems that I cannot function, especially when
I find myself in these situations
I analyze, extrapolate, and then deduce
Scenarios in which I can be of some use
Regardless, I think they'll see through my facade

But I can just pretend that the future's far away
And begin to sew the fabrics of a subtle symphony
Of promises, broken or fulfilled
Burning bridges dotting landscapes of expanding entropy

I refuse anything that sounds like a good idea
Abuse, I cannot fathom living a life that
Won't include a failure of my own invention
Dearly blue, and darkened thoughts solely remain to entertain

And can I just pretend that the future's far away
And begin to sew the fabrics of a subtle symphony
Of promises, broken or fulfilled
Burning bridges dotting landscapes of expanding entropy

If I could choose, if I could set my thoughts aflame
Then I'd remove the part of me that holds you down
My dearly blue
