Subject: yah, look down

so its like when you really wanna win the pretty tropical fish at the fair but no matter how hard you try you just cant get it. so instead they give you a goldfish. and, as it turns out, maybe you like the goldfish better than the tropical one. (that was supposed to be the message subject but it was too long)

i'd just like to say
for once and for all
that if i'm commonplace
its because thats where
i want to be.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

if i'm not so clear
and sway from side to side
maybe my hearts not in it-
maybe i'm just along for the ride.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

has it ever even occured
to you to look at me
through a different pair of eyes
besides the ones that already think
they know what they see?

you are blind because you choose to be.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

it made me so empty
to think of missing you
i cried to fill me up again.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

i knew i didnt have the stomach for
shaky ground on shaky days

i knew it was best to avoid the
potholes while driving on unpaved roads

so why didnt anyone tell me
i was building on a fault line?

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

maybe i'm just visiting
and none of this is real.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X

no matter how hard
things just cant come into focus

i guess my vision's off today.
