Extra Appendages

from I Was Awake by I Was Awake

/

lyrics

Here we are, we’re breathing hard
Now lying on the floor

We've questioned all and given up
Making sense of all that's working.

Here’s to endless consequences
And indecisive thinking
Clouding all judgment, so fall behind the curve.
Excess is influential
Yeah honesty’s not bought
To push us further backwards and forever more.

With all the choices we make
Pulling at our tiny threads
Slowly renders what we've always
Known and needed.

With all the choices we make
And all the paths so eager
Please cut off our extra appendages
Reaching out.

With only one wish, he falls in
Desire’s only got one meaning.
Too bad you tried so hard, and fell so far,
To look at life as one endless circle

Here’s our endless consequences
And indecisive thinking
Neglect all judgment, so fall behind the curve
Excess is influential
Your honesty’s not bought
To push us further backwards and never forward

With all the choices we make
Pulling at our tiny threads
Slowly renders what we've always
Known and needed.

With all the choices we make
And all the paths so eager
Please cut off our extra appendages
Reaching out.

I have seen what I believe is all we need
If we’d all come clean I believe it wouldn’t feel so completely obscene.

And would to be so wrong to long, to hear the sweetest song?
A chance to change the enemy, a smiling face, to let him know that he belongs.

Success is influential
Our honesty’s not bought
To push us further backwards and forever more.

With all the choices we make
Pulling at our tiny threads
Slowly renders what we've always
Known and needed.

With all the choices we make
And all the paths so eager
Please cut off our extra appendages
Reaching out.

With all the choices we make
Defining all past mistakes
It’s what we’ve always,
Known and needed.

With all the choices we make
And all the paths so eager
Please cut off our extra appendages
Reaching out.

With only abrasion, we rest our weary eyes
To gaze away, now strangely pacified.
