Life: Here & Now II

Phone rings louder every time Ring tone is set to ascend But it doesn't matter The phone that is ringing isn't mine And if I wait long enough it will end

You said you didn't love me anymore I sat there feeling kind of numb

for the friends I have wounded for the enemies I have killed for the children I have left unfed

let's begin start something new something enlightening give me something to chew

There's no time to try something different There's no time to try to find a better way No time to finally 'get it' Because it has already gone away

wasn't that long ago just yesterday or the day before that everything seemed like it would go on and on

people running on hopes we'll be running on fumes we'll be inhaling the scents of the choices we choose

I take two steps forward and then one back Just like dancing the Texas two step I'm just hoping I won't get spun around Tryin hard to keep my feet on the ground

there you were just like before looking just like you did when i first saw you at the door

I'm putting it together Just like arithmetic I'm working on getting a sum It's not rocket science To calculate that all of this Leads to more than one and one
