There is a carrot dangling
Outside a window narrowing
And it's teasing me
But it's the nerve that you lack
To cut the strings that hold you back
Your body is still alive
But buried under your head
I'm thinking
I think too much
'Cause there will
Not be a turn
Unless your cornered
Not be a side
If you're not bordered
Not be a guilt
Without a care
You're throwing them up
Into the air
You never expect
To have things operate like that
It's taken awhile
Stood at itself
It's got to take care of itself
What a joke to think your problem is a problem at all
Pass the torch until it's spent
I think your snapping out of it
Force yourself through the motions
It's a penalty in the pedals before
I'm thinking
I think too much
'Cause there will
Not be a turn
Unless your cornered
Not be a side
Without a border
Not be a guilt
Without a care
You're throwing them up
Into the air
You never expect
To have things operate like that
It's taken awhile
You never expect
To have things operate like that
Steps we trace
Falling on my face
Was the best way
It could have been
