Nerve Endings

(If life is what happens
When we can't fall asleep,
We need to build one another's perches.
Your family and friends
Will always stab you in the front.
The end result
Is not one damned thing after another,
It's one damned thing over and over.
We aren't contempt
And this is how we learn!)

Don't you see it's time
To let go of everything?
That's keeping us from the truth,
Keeping me from you.
So what good are all the pictures
If they have yet to get the frames?
Leave the past in the past
And focus on what you don't want framed.

(Dreams are forever recurring!)

And life is what happens
When we can't fall asleep.
And dreams are the same thing
As nightmares.

Don't you see it's time
To let go of everything?
That's keeping us from the truth,
Keeping me from you.
So what good are all the pictures
If they have yet to get the frames?
Leave the past in the past
And focus on what you don't want framed.

Leave your past in the past
We don't have to keep
All the mistakes he's made.

(You are keeping me awake!)
Leave your past behind you

(Dreams are forever recurring!)
