Floating Down the River

I have a few things to say

I'll just say what I need to

I have a few years to go before I'm floating down the river again

So it appears I'm alive

Hey, it's been quite a long time

I've spent a handful of years negotiating terms in hospital gowns

If you believe what you read, you'll be dead before nightfall

That's why I'm starting again without the pages in my hand

Do you feel the same?

Caught beneath the weight of it all

I am attempting to change after years of destruction

Don't be alarmed

I'm still stupid, awkward, anxious, and a terrible bore

But I'm excited these days

It's the strangest sensation

I only wish I were younger, so I would have more time to explore

Do you feel the same?

Do you understand

All the pieces of the scale are caught beneath the weight of it all?

Caught beneath the weight of it all

I have a few things to say

I'll just say what I need to

I have a few years to go before I'm floating down the river again

Do you feel the same?

Do you understand every letter in your name

Is caught beneath the weight of it all

Caught beneath the weight of it all

Caught beneath the weight of it all

Of it all

All
