Summerland

I'm not the man I hoped I be He never had a chance I'm counting shadows on the wall Sitting on a chair of my hands Scraping down on bloody knees Waiting for uncertainty Till the lights go out Till the embers sprout Terraform my confidence Pull the strings and make me dance Through the twisted clouds Oh I'm finding out I'm forever trapped in Summerland Waiting for the winds to blow again Bring me back the taste of bitter sand I once knew I'm a man a man uncertain of All my plans that stand undone Come and save me from this sycophant I've become Measured out lifetimes in coffee spoons Aluminum heart in a blood red moon When the Feeling stops Creeping in Fading to black Now I'm Cutting my tongue just to get a taste back It won't be long Falling asleep to the same three songs Cause I find It gets better all the time But I lied I'm queasy I've got going through the motions sickness I need to step outside I'm forever trapped in Summerland Waiting for the winds to blow again Bring me back the taste of bitter sand I once knew I'm a man a man uncertain of All my plans that stand undone Come and save me from this sycophant I've become
