i'm giving thought to the boundaries placed around the lies that we make
what's placed in front is narrowly viewed. undeserving, you take
depriving possibility, with such a lenience for self indulgence

all people are the same; we're all just trying to pull our own weight
i feel it every day
an uprooted tree, displaced

i'm nothing but silt being brought along downstream
i saw myself falling into the depths of unchanging means
now i see my faults, and i'm exchanging a new mentality

i'm swimming upstream, it's taking me to a place that i could never see
now all i seem to do is swim amongst the debris
i understand now that nothing is different

i can't accept i can't do anything about this
no sense in losing sleep over this detachment
we want more, we aren't appeased by simply just being

i'm giving up on moving forward
i'm giving up on moving towards something greater than
i gave into expectation

i gave into everything
it's a cycle always repeating
it's bound to repeat, always repeating

never ending until completed
never repeating
i'll never repeat it
