Nothing can save me now
I've set a course of action and I refuse to back out
Trying to prove, I can take this abuse
Hasn't proven anything
Retreat to my dreams but the figures remain
Asleep in a waking fantasy
Feeling so thin Circling the drain, I can't win All it adds up to is misery
Running in circles trying to keep it straight Not just my thoughts but my letter grade At night I close my eyes, but even there I'm pursued Break away? Naw, you're f***** dude Did you remember those terms? Ribonucleic-what? I hate the pain but I cant get enough Pushed to the edge and I'll ultimately jump But the journey through the thorns is half of the fun
Destroying my mind, sleepless nights So much reading I wish I were blind Passion propels and fear only serves to sink If skin and bones are really all that's left Bury me with my board and my denim vest If I die knowing nothing, then I lived nothing too Library coffee blues
WAKE UP!
Class is in session, check those microbial Hessians Hungover and I'm already late I've found a new place, where my mind can be free Up on the hill in the library No time to eat, barely time to sleep Haven't see my home in almost three weeks Giving up is no option, but if I ultimately break It's just another victim of that GPA
Stay in one piece, tofu fueled machine Make it through, and skate trips are all I see Mountains and shows, hangin' with the bros Samurai films, talking Emerson and Thoreau
Skateboards, beerbongs, endless nights, skatin' on, Captain Party and the dudes GRE, ATP, NAG, BSA, library homesick blues Circle the drain GPA and my brain But if I die knowing nothing, then I lived nothing too.
