Everybody’s Paris, Pt. I

Everybody's Paris, everybody's France
Everybody coming when they get the chance
Everybody's notion is to everybody's way
As everybody's lotion is to everybody's pain
Everybody waking in the morning in a trance
Forgotten dreams, nothing left to chance
Everybody flashes inner light
Everybody darker who been betrayed last night
Though not the point of view from which I get up out of bed
Stuffed inside the pillow, it's underneath my head
But it won't take me down today

Everybody found it, everybody sure
Then everybody found a little less, a little more
Everybody's nightmares are getting in the way
And everybody's schemes crumbling true today
Everybody's softer then they're letting on
Everybody's harder now that loneliness is gone
Not everybody's over yesterday
It's a spell we're under, keeps us caught up in its sway
While every day light, while every day long
Every day chasing through dark tunnels in this song
Where everybody's eyes and everybody's bust
Everybody's universe, everybody dust

Though not the point of view from which I get up out of bed
Stuffed inside the pillow, sideways in my head
Morning's still a game, there's no one really to blame for how I love you
Everybody's straight up running the same way
Everybody older even if you're born today
Everybody knows but I'm so confused
Every day anew and every night feeling used
When everyone's a piece in everybody's chain
There's right in losing and at least that much in gain
'Cause everybody finds that everybody flips
Today you're rushing, tomorrow just a drip
Could be anybody's black dog just outside the door, so
Everybody's right now could use a little more
Everybody's right here if you give 'em half a chance
Everybody's Paris, everybody's France
