Evening

[Intro]
It's just another evening

[Verse 1]
This is a letter to the world as a whole
A hole that only seems to grow by swallowing your soul
I never followed any goals, goals that led me to a dead end
Goals that kept pouring paint in my cup and never settle in
Overflowing, overdosing, roller coasting
Growing weary of attachment like a soldier to a close friend
Every step I take is supposedly for a better mankind
Actually, I'm making sure I'm not stepping on a landmine
I can't find the damn sign that tells me where to turn
Tells me where to learn, tells me where to grow old and burn
What you don't know can hurt you, but ignorance is bliss
Even the shallowest of creatures is an infinite abyss
I didn't risk getting dissed, talked to no one or myself
But would end up getting pissed when there was no one there to help
Share the wealth with the rich and they'll probably eat your back
But if you give it to the kids then they'll give the richness back
When in fact, it's given that a different track is what you're walking
So you can at least get some sleep and rest in peace in that coffin
Crossing lines that sometimes remind me life is limited
Didn't plan to go to Hell but it's nice you have your ticket, kid
The price of having interest in something so complex
Is you could find a lot of problems then lose all your respect
I'm just a blue collar cadet, intellect: the weapon of choice
Without a speck of sanity besides the anger in my voice

[Hook x2]
Cuz everywhere I go, the Moon seems to follow me
I gaze upon the stars cuz that's where I oughta be
Odysseys arrive to me but still, sometimes I wonder
Why people high above me are laying 6 feet under

[Verse 2]
I'm stuck on an island's erupting of violence
Constructing a virus, conducting death's silence
It seeps through my iris when I peek through my eyelids
Seems too hard to fight it, we might die of this
I think I need some scientists to try and fix me up
They were supposed to fly in quick, I wonder if he's stuck
They'll prescribe a hit of vitamins then charge me 50 bucks
I'd like to get this ride to end and have a friend pick me up
But the sky is just too far away, why? It's just too hard to say
If I could fly, I'd climb the stars today, if I had pride, I'd mine the bars and chains
I'll hard the scars of pain in pieces not large enough to be one
So I'll use the shards of grain to carve my name upon this tree trunk
The seasons change the hemisphere, then the fear is settling
The reason's strange, the end is near, descending tears from Heaven's den
Southside resident but not considered a southerner
I'm from a state where I helped elect a pro wrestler for governor
In other words, some prefer the option less encouraged and flourished
And malnourished, burdens until they surface
The Moon has ghostly eyes to watch me closely, no sleep, hide
As they approach me, why I try with all my strength to evade it
I can travel any length and it still keeps me sedated
Was sent from a spaceship, entered my brain into my platelets
Now I'm sitting at the doctor's office trying to be patient
But the Sun is fading, introducing the day's end
And I drink to the evening on such an occasion
(Just another evening)
