lyrics
I look myself in the eye
I wake up every morning
I kill my thoughts with a knife
Then blow a kiss to the silence
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
The morning zoo is alive
But, I just keep getting smaller
It’s my decision to lie
To settle down by the fire
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
Talk to myself all the time
Waiting on the long train
The Devil’s right behind
Stuck in the passing lane
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over and done?
And how long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
I got a piece of the pie
I could say ‘when’ if I wanted
I wake up every morning
I kill my thoughts with a knife
Then blow a kiss to the silence
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
The morning zoo is alive
But, I just keep getting smaller
It’s my decision to lie
To settle down by the fire
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
Talk to myself all the time
Waiting on the long train
The Devil’s right behind
Stuck in the passing lane
How long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over and done?
And how long does it take
To find the peace that I want?
And how long must I wait
To decide that it’s over? Well, I don’t know
I got a piece of the pie
I could say ‘when’ if I wanted

Gritty and poignant. I love the imagery and attention to detail in the lyrics that captures that singular experience of growing up in the 'burbs. Quite excellent for screaming along to in the car
