lyrics

It's crazy how time flies but your in the same spot
As you were when you were sixteen.
It's not a surprise that I became a nobody
Who never left New Jersey.
I should be in my prime.
I should be living in my glory days.
If I had a spine then I would make the change.

Lately I've been stressed.
Tomorrow makes me feel anxious.
Being myself makes me feel depressed.
I feel like I'm on house arrest.
I think that its crazy that one day I could end up a lost soul.
I'm a ghost incarcerated,
Waiting for parole.
Conjure my soul.

I am just a castaway,
Deserted on an island.
Staring out of my window,
In the cell of my asylum.
I see nothing over the east coast horizon.
There's no more hiding behind silence.
I wanted to go undetected,
Living in my comfort zone.
But now I'm trapped behind these walls that I built out of stone.

Is there something more to this life?
Did I miss anything or was it all just hype?
This seems to be my cancer.
I wish I had all the answers.
Is there something out there just for me?
Do you believe in a thing called destiny?
This seems to be my cancer.
I wish I had all the answers.

I used to think I was profound.
My passion is buried in the ground.
