Lyrics Middle Class Rut

Middle Class Rut

Thought I Was

Dried up in the heart

It's been one too many times

But I'm shot and I'm hopeless

Just going through the motions

Tried to cut the tie

Just hanging by a thread

But I ain't right without it

And I'm afraid of consequence

I'm living with a two-faced slut

Waiting to take back control

I'm caught up in a world

Where I lay in the bed

That I made as the lights keep spinning

I'm running with the betting on me

I'm being the best I could be

But it feels like the sun when I wait

You're too tired for the work to come with the darkness

Sick of the me I made

And the doubt I'm always in

It's not about where I'm going

But where I've already been

I've severed every one of my ties

There was nothing else to do

Now I'm back

To where I was before

I've got nobody to amuse

Forget about the way that I felt

On the day I was born and every one after

Forget about the hook in my mouth

When I thought I was caught and it was all over

There ain't a wall

There ain't a reason

To stop this climbing

There ain't enough force

So god damn

Go ahead and let it all come out

Will I wait, forever?

Will I wait, til I'll feel alive?

Will I wait, forever?

Will I wait, til I'll feel alive?

Well, just look back at the only thing to the wall

I saw your chance and I'm gonna take it

Yea, it's been a long time since I feel right

But too many rights, and you end up back where you started

WHERE YOU STARTED!

WHERE YOU STARTED!

Will I wait, forever?

Will I wait, forever?

Will I wait, til I'll feel alive?

Will I wait, forever?

Will I wait, til I'll feel alive?
