Yeah, and That's It
Not Trying to Make Things Boring...
Unaware
Is it possible to be blind from the start
Thinking people are one way and seeing it all fall apart
How can deceit be right under your nose
And if there's so many masks why did it take so long to know
And how come the truth can't be the first thing spoken
Why so many lies in this unappreciating commotion
If things were to become real and emotion was true
How come I'm revealing way more than you
What used to look like success now looks like a fake
I feel that any care and openness was an act my mistake
For true connection and conversation would look much different than a play
But you said what you needed to in order to keep all participants at bay
And how come the truth can't be the first thing spoken
Why so many lies in this unappreciating commotion
If things were to become real and emotion was true
How come I'm revealing way more than you
I guess playing the game is more important than finding real happiness inside
Tearing people down is the only way to keep your pride
And controlling deceit must stroke your self-confidence
If you ask me your lack of worth and these acts aren't a coincidence
And how come the truth can't be the first thing spoken
Why so many lies in this unappreciating commotion
If things were to become real and emotion was true
How come I'm revealing way more than you
Monotony
Monotony is a thing that occurs with complacency

But the opposite factor is more difficult to beat
Nevertheless in order to start living you need to get on your feet

Depression is an immobilizer that can stun the best of us
But you have to bring in gratitude and appreciation is a must
Add some faith and some sympathy and you could see things change for the better
Putting a little sunshine instead of rain in the weather

Nervous Apprehension
Apprehension and nerves can paint any perception
It's so hard to concentrate even with my own persuasion
Clouded vision and tremors make waiting so long
I just want to get past the situation instead of stringing it along
And time can make an uncomfortable moment takeover every thought
It's difficult to focus on anything else when the anticipation of negativity is all you got
Trying to find clarity in a fog covered conception is something you have to push for so try to be the exception
Deep breaths instead of tight fists get more done
Being sidetracked by anxiety isn't that fun
But if you find something more important to keep your mind on while you wait
You may find that the unappealing situation is a small issue on your plate
And time can make an uncomfortable moment takeover every thought
It's difficult to focus on anything else when the anticipation of negativity is all you got
Trying to find clarity in a fog covered conception is something you have to push for so try to be the exception
And eventually the discomfort and stress will be relieved
You just have to keep going
Don't trip over your feet
The moment will allow you to feel free
And everything you went through will have more meaning
And time can make an uncomfortable moment takeover every thought
It's difficult to focus on anything else when the anticipation of negativity is all you got
Trying to find clarity in a fog covered conception is something you have to push for so try to be the exception
