About

Matt Shultz says, “I was sitting around with a couple of friends, and I started to have these revelations about songwriting. What struck me was, the more you try to distance yourself from that honest, bare moment of creativity in order to cater to cool or to look artistic, the further you’re going t...

Telescope Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a far and distant galaxy
Inside my telescope I see
A pair of eyes peer back at me
He walks and talks and looks like me
He sits around inside his house
From room to room, he moves about
Fills his life with pointless things
And wonders how it all turns out

[Pre-Chorus]
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
It's safe to say that

[Chorus]
I don't think you understand
There's nowhere left to turn, the walls keep breaking
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted
Don't waste it

[Verse 2]
Afraid of what the truth might bring
He locks his doors and never leaves
Desperately searching for signs
Too terrified to find a thing
He battens all the hatches down
And wonders why he hears no sounds
Frantically searching his dreams
He wonders what it's all about

[Pre-Chorus]
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
It's safe to say that

[Chorus]
I don't think you understand
There's nowhere left to turn, the walls keep breaking
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted

[Bridge]
Here in my mind, losing my friends
Fall on my face, do it again
You say, "How do you do?"
Man, how 'bout you? Man, how 'bout you?
To be free, to be sold
To be killed, to be safe
In my head, I'm alone
I'm not dead, I'm ashamed
Just like you, I've been trying to escape
In my bones, I feel cold
I give thanks to the Lord
Industry, in the street
Let me go, let me be
I don't need to be here
I'm alone, can't you see? Can't you see?

[Chorus]
I don't think you understand
There's nowhere left to turn, these walls keep breaking
Time is like a leaf in the wind
Either it's time well spent or time I've wasted
Don't waste it
