Centre Of Everything

It comes in waves, so they say
Inch is a mile, swimming up hill
Who are they, why you listen
I sold my soul, didn't have one to regret it

Never thought, never gave it a minute
Staring you in the face I’m in it
One long blessing and one long curse
Trying to decide which one’s worse

Devouring it like its wronged me
Best things in life aren’t free
So much water under the bridge
Flooding is guaranteed
Coming up for air looking at my surroundings
Everything’s familiar nothing the same
Eating away like a wasting disease
Just another skin suit when its cut it bleeds

Always believe that the gift is ending
Never fall for the lie of ascending
Always believe that the gift is ending
Never fall for the lie of ascending

Grasping hands are really brutal
Slip through my grip again
The only thing that’s a constant
Is my fucking name

Always believe that the gift is ending
Never fall for the lie of ascending
Always believe that the gift is ending
Never fall for the lie of ascending

No lesson learned, no advice to offer
Everyone has their own Living to do
All come wandering for answers you’ll see
Disappointed like most of us will
This is everything you think it is
It’s also nothing in the same breath
I offer no great wisdom or insight
The only gift for you is death

Always have faith in the shift
Never fail to wage war
Always revel in the ride
Never fall for the lie

Floating down stream can’t stem the tide
Denial a lifeboat can’t climb in and hide
On this winding river I am but a leaf
On this fucking river I will come to grief
Which one’s worse
