the answers lay in the land of insomnia

i'm banging out one more tune
in the name of insomnia
i'm exhausted with being frustrated
exhausted with being insane
sanely, ofcoarse
which in some opinions
is even worse

so maybe i have changed a little
my tude, my hair color, my heart
what of it fuckers?
who really gives a rat's ass?

so all is lost
everything was won
another trophy gained
another dream slept on
leaning on rocks
and cuddling with clean sheets
at least i got my dignity
at least i said my piece

so fuck it all
and fuck again
sleep awkward with me
and all the dogs
hit me with your best punch
and you bet your toosh i'm bouncing back

i'm here on this physical plane
and i'm gonna live out loud
it's the least i can do
it's the most i can do

so come off your high horse of doubt
try me
i'm listening
stop being an asshole
cause i'm on the move
rolling on a river
gonna make mary proud

speak up
cause waves acrashin'
and i only gots one ear to hear ya
so speak up if you need me

it can all be over
believe that
all this is subject to change
it's up to you to row your boat
sink with integrity
rise with serenity
it's up to you now
yes indeedy, all up for grabs
reach out and hold on to it
embrace it
before the tide takes it all away

it's the damn truth
the tide will take all away
mark those words
it'll take away the bad
and it sure will take away the good

so off i drift
moving on to another land
gonna build me a home some where
gonna find me a tomb over there
a place i can lay this body and rest
where at last, there is peace
relief on this chest

i'm over being me
being me like this
the winds are blowing a little differently these days
goodbyes are scheduled
too late my friend
you forgot to show up my friend
you missed it my dear
life
it came and went
you were sleeping
you did not respond to the horns
i did not respond to the sirens

so off i drift
moving on to another land
gonna build me a home some where
gonna find me a tomb over there
a place i can lay this body and rest
sleep forever
regret at it's best
