Lyrics

I’m looking forward to the summertime
to get over this darkness that comes over and over
But I was wrong, all it takes is a new perspective
and now I’ve got one
No one can touch you I know
I never learned to control my emotions
I blazed through days like a fever spreading over your brain
I turned to thoughts to help me square it out
But thoughts were heavy and they weighed me down
Each blade that’s cutting another one lifting
Some threads were left I tried to tie together again
Could I invent myself as anything?
Walk through winter untouched, every cold winter untouched
We can talk on how my worries are unfounded
I have faith that I don’t have faith in anything said
I have faith that I don’t have faith in anything read
Am I a cynic or a quiet disbeliever?
(On pins and needles either way, on pins and needles any day)
I draw your blood with my strange disposition
I hate that you confuse passion with pretension
I’d erase these less than optimal conditions.
It’s all perspective that you tell
Keep your perspective for yourself
Could I resent myself as anyone?
Could I invent myself as anyone?
You wouldn’t want this wished upon you
And I thought I’d never write again
But I was wrong
All it took was a new perspective
and now I’ve got one
