lyrics

I tie the laces on my shoes like I’ve been taught before
But then I tie them next to friends and they don’t understand
And here I was just sitting, I don’t need another lesson
I already do what I do
I don’t do what I don’t
Cause if I did I’d be cursing the don’ts
I’ll never be cursing the don’ts

This monochromatic
Gonna make me panic
I won’t have it
You drill from the edges
Until I’m pigeon-holed inside
There’s a door ajar in back of me
And I’m sitting in a window seat
Should have seen it all
And let the words
Eject themselves as they may
Please
As they may
Please

Riding on a train that’s going nowhere fast
Or rather rowing on a boat that goes forward and then back
They say that I’m the perfect human sacrifice
If I change to what I’m not
But I’m not what I change to be
If I did I’d be clanging on these chains
I’ll never be changing just to change

This monochromatic
Gonna make me panic
I won’t have it
You drill from the edges
Until I’m pigeon-holed inside
There’s a door ajar in back of me
And I’m sitting in a window seat
Should have seen it all
And let the words
Eject themselves as they may
Please
As they may
Please

Don’t grow hedges around me
Don’t throw sharpened edges at me
Pulled your weeds out of the garden, hoping for better soil
But just you wait for them to uncoil
For them to uncoil

This monochromatic
Gonna make me panic
I won’t have it
You drill from the edges
Until I’m pigeon-holed inside
There’s a door ajar in back of me
And I’m sitting in a window seat
Should have seen it all
And let the words
Eject themselves as they may
Please
As I
Please
