did you happen to catch
or did it happen so fast
what you thought would always last
has passed you by
is everthing speeding up
or am I slowing down
I'm spinning around
and I don't know why
all the pieces don't fit
though I didn't really give a shit
I never wanted to be like you
but for all I aspire
I am really a liar
and I'm running out of things I can do

I'd like to stay
but everyday
everthing pushes me farther away
if you could show
help me to know
how it's supposed to be
where did it go?

pleading and
needing and
bleeding and
breeding and
feeding
exceeding
where is everybody?
trying and
lying
defying
denying
crying and
dying
where is everybody?

well ok, enough.
you've had your fun
but come on there has got to be someone
hasn't yet become
so numb
and succumb
and
god damn I am so tired of pretending
wishing I was ending
when all I'm really doing is trying to hide
and keep it inside
fill it with lies
open my eyes?
maybe I wish I could try

pleading and
needing and
bleeding and
breeding
feeding
exceding
where is everybody?
trying and
lying
defying
denying
crying and
dying
where is everybody?
