lyrics

I thought those thoughts of mine were gone, but now I feel them crawling back in me
I thought I managed self control, and drove the past out of my skull
But now that mes going right back to sleep
These vibrations shake me up and pour right over me till I cant even think or see the sky
And theres one who rules this all and Im only fueling there control and keeping them from finding there true path in life

Made a mistake the other day, woke up this morning trying to handle it the best way that I can
Now thats something I wouldnt do about a year or so ago but now my sense of beings learning how to stand
I finally gave myself space for one day and then I finally felt alive and felt aware
Ive been spending forty bucks a week just to let someone hear me speak
And now Im losing track of all that I declared

Trying to be present like I once was in the past
Why is it so hard for me to stay in present tense?
Trying to get back into yesterdays energy
The act is going upstream
My minds got a hold of me
Trying to get back into yesterdays energy
The act it is strangling me
My minds got a hold of me now

But now Im taking a conscious breath
I take a look at the leaves and see them swaying back and forth
Now Ive finally found myself
Nothing more than the peacefulness residing in my soul
Tomorrow and yesterday
Have never been true to me
So why is yesterdays energy
Trying to crawl in my mind today

This dead end problem
Is never ending
This dead end problem
is ever changing always losing its shape

This dead end problem
Is ever changing but its keeping its frame
