Silly Old Bear

Waiting on a mystery You let me down with all the promises you said you'll keep But I trust in us the battle through the hardships To stay afloat and not plunge into darkness I just really wish you'd know If I should stay or I should go I'll be waiting for your answer Why should someone suffer for the one that they love The bittersweet nonsense of the sad lonely painter Should never be spoken of so seriously by anyone To live in sadness is to admit defeat To collapse under pressure to the coward's retreat To buckle under the verbal knuckles of your lover Is a place that I don't want to be Something disturbs me slightly And I can't let it go Surrounds me all the time Keeps playing on my mind This thing, I really don't like it My intuition isn't My intuition isn't giving me any rest I think I know it but I don't want to know if I'm right Your eyes are out of focus And failing that they're overflowing You know conflict isn't breathing Self inlicted damage aside You can't stay quiet for ever Break the silence and become untethered But something disturbs me slightly And I can't let it go Surrounds me all the time Keeps playing on my mind This thing, I really don't like it My intuition isn't My intuition isn't giving me any rest I think I know it but I don't want to know Waiting on a mystery You let me down with all the promises you said you'll keep Haven't heard a single word from you all week All hope is lost ini all the things that we used to dream of We are the shadows of what we used to be Once enraptured by this make believe Your eyes are out of focus And failing that they're overflowing You know conflict isn't breathing Self inlicted damage aside You can't stay quiet for ever Break the silence and become untethered
