The Beginning of the End

You better shut your eyes
Here's where your life begins
There's something gone
Anesthetized again
I see you run
You're never coming back
You've lost control
So easy to distract

All come alive for the hesitant
The summer sun is blind and inveterate
Some seek a light
Some creep at night
Some run and hide

I do what I want to
I calculate
Forgot you were broken
My mistake
I look in the mirror
Time to pay
And nobody knows me
When I'm awake

I'm so sad
So keep it coming
You're falling down
I'll get your money
Walk in the room
And I see your ass has gone astray
You've lost your way
Come find your way

All come alive in the present tense
The summer sun has died of irrelevance
Some see the light
Some sleep at night
Some take their time

I do what I want to
I calculate
Forgot you were broken
My mistake
