I Can't Write It Down
Unspoken Desires: Struggles of Expression
Lyrics
I know it's a problem
I acknowledge there is an issue
I can't write it down
I struggle to express it in writing
The things I am wanting
My desires are profound and internal
Are deep in me now
These desires are deeply ingrained within me
Are you worried about:
Are you concerned about
All the things you're without?
Lacking things in your life
All the things you can doubt?
Doubting various aspects
What you don't know?
The unknown aspects
I know it's a problem
I recognize it as a problem
I can't walk a line
I struggle to maintain a certain path
And if I have lost it
If I've lost something, it was never truly mine
It was never mine
It wasn't genuinely mine if lost
Are you worried about:
Are you concerned about
All the things you can doubt?
Doubting various aspects of life
All the things you're without?
Lacking certain elements
What you don't feel?
Not feeling certain emotions
But you think all the time
You constantly think
If you knew yourself, you'd be just fine
If you truly understood yourself, you'd be fine
But you're not what they think
You don't conform to others' perceptions
You can calm yourself with a small drink
You find solace in a small indulgence
But you're not just a lush
You're not merely indulgent
You can paint yourself with a broad brush
You present yourself broadly to the world
If they find out who you are
If others discover your true identity
That you're just white trash
They may see you as socially disadvantaged
Sleeping in your car (Your car)
You might be living in difficult circumstances
I know it's a problem
I acknowledge there is an issue
I can't write it down
I struggle to express it in writing (repeated)
The things I am wanting
My desires are profound and internal (repeated)
Are deep in the ground
These desires are buried deep within
