Observations of a Cynic

from Skeptical Spectacle by Soundproof Highway

lyrics

You know my whole life’s becoming a change of pace.
It rises, then it settles, then it cuts to the chase.
My thoughts and my actions are becoming the same.
The whole thing is driving me completely insane.
It’s driving me insane.
It’s driving me insane.
You know, it seems so hard when everyone’s to blame
And all we’ve accomplished goes down the drain.

I make my decisions in the swing of things.
I play my guitar then I grow some wings.
There’s a thorn in my side and a chip on my shoulder
In spite of this, I never will grow older.
I never will get older.
I’ll never grow older.
The ivy still climbs up every tree
And I’m still treated like a refugee.

We tried to build a shelter underground.
So far away from the sights and the sounds.
We write all kinds of verse and some poems and some prose.
But it all has the same meaning though, that’s how it goes.
That’s how it goes.
So it goes.
It seems so hard when everyone is to blame
And all we’ve accomplished goes down the drain
