Value - All Get Out

You started to spiral out

The ground’s just a circle in a decaying orbit

You tried just to idle awhile

Thought if you sat still

You’ll blend with the forest, well you don’t

Noted another loss

Well don’t feel bad, I mean, if you can help it

You learn how to document

Like bad weather patterns

And I guess you can call it

«Progress of a kind»

Not everybody takes this long

I can’t un-see it but man can you believe that we’re here

There’s always a try again

Well don’t be upset when repeating a formative year

Doing the same thing for years

Repeating the formative years

I try to settle down

I fake my death, had no one believe it

I fight with the neighbor’s kid

I ran over his bike

«Well don’t park it behind my van»

I became a frail black bird

My chest started burning

I could die if you squeeze me too long

I almost got away with it

Starting to deal with the problem

So I guess you can call it

«Progress of a kind»

Not everybody takes this long

I can’t un-see it but man can you believe that we’re here

There’s always a try again

Well don’t be upset when repeating a formative year

Doing the same thing for years

Repeating the formative years

Watch you in the morning come to life again

Watch you in the evening fall apart the same

Anemic numbers ruling over you and me

It’s the reason you refer to them as holding value

They don’t

It’s unkind how often you’re required to replay

Your light, snuffed out, on fire, doused again

Somehow you reignite and I’m impressed

Not everybody takes this long

I can’t un-see it but man can you believe that we’re here

There’s always a try again

Well don’t be upset when repeating a formative year

Watch you in the morning come to life

Watch you in the evening fall apart again

Anemic numbers ruling over you

It’s the reason you refer to them as holding value
