Lyrics
Loose pairs of eyes on a lonely threat
Observing scattered glances on a desolate path
Inspired demise on a movie set
Fascinated by the end on a film set
Rewriting my sins
Revisiting my transgressions
For the actors, anyone I've ever met
Expressing remorse for actors and everyone encountered
All waiting for another scene to start
Awaiting the commencement of another life scene
Broken possessions or a broken heart
Choosing between shattered possessions or a broken emotional state
Holding on to things
Clutching onto tangible items
Hoping to tell the real and dreams apart
Aspiring to distinguish reality from dreams
But that's not the way the story goes
Contrasting the anticipated storyline
And it's different every time I fall
Experiencing variations with each stumble
Even further down the rabbit hole
Descending further into complexity
Perfect lies from the dying light
Receiving flawless deception from fading illumination
Until distraction brings me home
Until diversions guide me back
Replay a minute, hour, or a day
Reliving a moment, hour, or day
Take myself half a fucking world away
Transporting myself far from here
Falling through my sins
Falling through my wrongdoings
For one where I can have the words to say
In search of a reality where I possess adequate words
Speculate on everything I've ever known
Contemplating everything ever known
Shaking things that fixed themselves a life ago
Disturbing settled matters from a previous life
Holding all I see
Embracing everything within sight
In the same playbook that I can't let go
Adhering to the same ineffective strategy I cannot release
But that's not the way the story goes
Rejecting the conventional plot progression
And it's different every time I fall
Encountering distinct outcomes with each descent
Even further down the rabbit hole
Descending even deeper into life's complexities
Perfect lies from the dying light
Receiving impeccable falsehoods from diminishing illumination
Until distraction brings me home
Until external diversions guide me home
