Tune It Out
[Chorus]
I'm at odds with these ends, I got ebbs in my flows
Can't get by with my friends- no, this burden's my own
There my eyes go again, watching jealousy grow
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out
Gotta tune it out
Gotta tune it out
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out
[Verse 1]
Been trying to write a lot
Any thoughts I try to jot
Desperate to strike it hot, the lamp's in a wet socket when the light goes off
Burnt out, my mind is shot
And then on comes the writer's block
Next I figure "Why don't I just log on and see 'bout other folks' livеs and whatnot?"
Good God, I'm lost
Everything I want, they've got
Thеy popped, I saw, gave props, "Great job"
But all I discern of it is that I stay robbed
Why the phrase "When opportunity knocks"?
It always seems like you gotta break the lock
Think it's better when I finally log off?
I gotta figure out how to make it stop
[Chorus]
I'm at odds with these ends, I got ebbs in my flows
Can't get by with my friends- no, this burden's my own
There my eyes go again, watching jealousy grow
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out, tune it out)
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out, tune it out)
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out
[Verse 2]
Been trying to watch less- nah
Doing it instead of trying my best
Long as I'm active I climb to the next
Echelon with the effort and the time I invest
And I'm on another level when it's time I can set
Aside- instead of killing time on the net
And in that mirror's image that my eyes tend to catch
I look in my inner windows and the lies don't deflect, no
Right back at me they reflect
Masked by the thought of outside stress
But the truth is that I'm hiding regret
At all I haven't done with the talents I possess
No one road to finding success
Gotta follow my path, I'm defining the steps
Might have said it before but now I sleep better
More honest when I close my eyes, you can bet, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm at odds with these ends, I got ebbs in my flows
Can't get by with my friends- no, this burden's my own
There my eyes go again, watching jealousy grow
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out, tune it out)
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out)
Gotta tune it out (Tune it out, tune it out)
Close your eyelids and then you'll see your mind's in control
Gotta tune it out
Tune it out
Tune it out
Tune it out, tune it out
