[ti: A Line Allows Progress, A Circle Does Not] [ar:bright eyes] [al:Every Day and Every Night] [00:12.87]Sitting around, no work today [00:18.31]Try pacing to keep awake [00:25.10]Laying around, no school today [00:30.23]Just drink until the clock has circled all the way [00:38.16] [00:42.26]It's late afternoon, as you walk through the rooms [00:47.00]of a house that is quiet [00:50.15]except for unanswered telephones [00:52.74]You stand near the sink [00:55.50]you mix up a drink [00:58.64]You think you don't want to pass out [01:01.89]where your roommates could find you again [01:05.60]Stumble 'round the neighboorhod, nothing to do [01:10.02]You're always looking for something [01:12.93]to sniff smoke or swallow [01:16.26]Calling over next door, see what they've got [01:20.92]But you would settle for anything [01:23.75]that would make your brain slow down or [01:26.34]stop this circle of thoughts you chase [01:33.40]before they catch back up with you [01:40.46]And your parents notice your thinning face [01:46.19]All the weight you've lost [01:49.51]All the weight youre losing [01:53.57]You said "I'm done feeling like a skeleton [01:56.12]no more sleep walking dead." [01:59.99]You're going to wake from this coma [02:03.26]You're going to crawl from this bed you've made [02:07.61]Stop counting on the camera [02:10.61]that hangs around your neck [02:12.96]cause it will never remember what you choose to forget. [02:20.13]And you try to find one source of light [02:23.80]try to name one thing you like [02:27.16]You used to have such a longer list [02:29.93]And light, you never had to look for it [02:33.20]But now it's so easy, it's so easy to [02:36.83]it's so easy, it's so easy to [02:39.98]second guess everything you do [02:42.30]until all you want, all you want is to [02:46.30]finish this half empty glass [02:52.32]before the ice all melts away [02:59.38]This feeling always used to pass [03:05.10]seems like it's every day [03:08.22]seems like it's every night now
