paroles de chanson The Catalyst - Meridian

I think that I was distracted the day you came home
I was so used to airplanes and cellular phones
We were dead set on making up for lost time
Well, you can seek, but you won't find

Well the only thing stopping myself is my mind
Like a concrete wall stacked a thousand feet high
They said, "You'd better start digging or learn how to fly."
I said, "No thanks, I'll just walk right on through."
Said, "No thanks, I'll just walk right on through."

I walk with a weight in my shoes
An invisible cloud around my head
I keep my fears by my side
In hopes that one day they might serve as a catalyst for something else more positive

I think that I was distracted that night on the roof
And when the cops showed up you were tying your shoes
Said, "Come on, we don't have any time, don't you see?"
You said, "Time don't have anything for me"

So I smiled and I laughed as I crawled back inside
Fell drunk on the ground and knocked over the light
I said, "With everyone I love, I leave some pieces behind"
You said, "I know how you feel, it's alright"
Said, "I know how you feel, it's alright"

I walk with a weight in my shoes
An invisible cloud around my head
I keep my fears by my side
In hopes that one day they might serve as a catalyst for something else more positive

So I wallow and drown
I kick and I flail
Heaving and panting and gasping for air
Sick of the cyclical nature of things
And the doubts and regrets and the trees with no leaves
So I walk through the train yards and run in the street
But that sinister, smiling cycle repeats
And I climb up the stairs and collapse on the floor
I don't know what to think anymore
I don't know what to think anymore

Don't think I ever did

I think that I've been distracted for most of my life in a sea made of pavement and yellow-dashed lines
With everyone you love, you leave some pieces behind
So dry your eyes now, it's alright
